So you think it's good that republicans are hoping for the coutry to get worse or just stay the same if it allows republicans to gain politically?? Is that what you are saying? I only ask because instead of addressing the problem you seem to be making excuses for it.
Oh and care to explain how obama's policies made it worse when most economists that I have seen or heard talking about it have stated that his policies actually prevented it from getting worse?? Do you have anything REAL to back up your claims or is this the usual unsubstantiated spin??
Republicans are not hoping for this. But it is obviously what is going to happen. The economy cannot recover fast enough by Nov to make everyone forget how bad it is.
Who are the economists you have seen saying that? Lawrence Summers. Take a look at today's WSJ editorial and letter page where Summers basically lies about what he had written in an academic paper that contradicts administraiton policy.
These people are shameless political exploiters.
