However, the important thing, IMO, is what oil prices do. If oil prices come down, I think everything will be fine. If they stay high, that could be a big problem.
It's annoying that a guy who has not ideas whatsoever could get elected.
EXACTLY - I have already got the emails sent out to all family and extended family saying the "Household figure" - and saying the media is only telling half the story on "job creation" -
Now is the GWB reelection team smart enough to have these talking points out there - (not a chance!) I've already heard a WH Spokesperson say on the Radio today "we know it is hard out there, some places are struggling more then others, but jobs are coming back and we have the right plan to make this happen even more" - They are so fking dumb it is mind boggling - They continually talk from a "defeatist" attitude when addressing the media -
Not a peep out of the WH spokesperson about the Household numbers coming in hugely at 600,000 jobs - NOT A WORD - Blows your mind - (but wait, the "magic" is about to happen....from these morons...yeah).
Of course the GW backstabbing posters on this thread will never post what would happen if their buddy, moi Kerri was elected.
Here is a current thread on FR showing what their butt buddy moi Kerri would do to jobs in the red zones:

The Rolls-Royce Affair: The candidate isn’t up to speed in Detroit

By any objective measure, Senator Kerry is one of the Big Three's most hostile opponents in Washington, D.C. In 2002, he introduced legislation that would have increased corporate average fuel-economy standards (CAFE) from 24 to 36 miles-per-gallon. The Energy Information Administration estimated that Kerry's proposal would have eliminated 450,000 jobs in the United States and resulted in lost economic input of $170 billion. Kerry's CAFE increase would have hit Michigan's economy especially hard because GM, Ford, and Chrysler are more dependent on the profits from low-mileage SUVS, pickups, and minivans (light trucks) than their foreign competitors. This reliance on light trucks is directly tied to the enormous labor costs associated with paying UAW negotiated wages, health benefits, and pensions. Detroit can't cover its labor and legacy costs by selling sedans.

These third party losers in life would have us not vote for GW and allow their butt buddy moi Kerri to come in and really run our economy.
It is up to them to name one thing moi Kerri would good for our economy.
The first thing he would do is to raise taxes. That would bring the days of Carter back really quick.
