TRENDING: DNC chair says Republicans rooting for bad economy

(CNN) – Republicans looking to defeat President Barack Obama in November’s general election are rooting for the American economy to fail, the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee said in an interview Sunday.

Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said criticism from Republicans on Friday’s worse-than-expected jobs report was reflective of their political motives.

“What's really bothersome to me is that it almost seems like my Republican colleagues in Congress and Mitt Romney are rooting for economic failure,” Wasserman Schultz told CNN chief political correspondent Candy Crowley. “I mean, they've been hyper focused on one job, Barack Obama's, for really the last two years. And we all need to be pulling together to focus on moving the economy forward for the middle class and for working families.”

That's better than 'talking down the economy' - eh? (RATS tried that one back in the day.)

Not true.

I'm rooting for $10 a gallon gasoline by November 6th, too.

Rooting regardless is not the equivalent of the RATS producing a stinking economy through their policies.

The price of diesel is firm at $3.98 down from $3.99 and holding now for three weeks.

It would seem $4.00 will be the plateau at which gas and diesel equalize once again.

Wasserman Schultz woudn’t know a “middle class working family” if it kicked her in the keister

Which may just happen in November

But Lord, she is the gift that just keep on giving, so please let the DNC keep her chained to the dog house

Pointing out the precariousness of the economy is not the same as rooting for a bad economy.

Unless CNN wants to admit it was “rooting for a bad economy” for 12 straight years, through all of Reagan and Bush 41.

This is going to be the nastiest, most deceitful election in our history. Obama is the most divisive ‘leader’ EVER!

A full spring, summer, and fall of $4 a gal gas will have the economy in a tailspin, and voters outraged.

You have to laugh out loud at the idiotic blather this DNC trollop continues to dribble out.

"Wish for a bad economy?" Hell, we don't have to wish for anything of the sort -- you and your Marxist taskmasters have already provided that on a silver platter.

Last June, JWS was proudly proclaiming "We own this economy!". Yes, you certainly do.

Democrats never forget.

Wasserman Schultz is repeating the Republican charge that Democrats were rooting for the Iraq war to fail, and that Democrats were "talking down the economy" under Bush.

Is this coming from the same demoCRAP party that pitched a hissy-fit over Wayne LaPierre pointing out that Clintoon's gun control agenda benefitted from mass-murders? Them?
