Ten days, kiddo. How many days did Obama have to create jobs without expending financial resources for the effort?
BHO has verbally acknowledged that his failure to spur any infrastructure improvement projects is what left his own recovery programs weak.
He explains that at the time they (himself and Congress) were looking for fast fixes, and infrastructure takes 3 to 5 years.
Of course in hindsight he HAD 8 years. But he still blew it.
This is probably why Hillary lost in the swing states, and therefore the People voted to change regimes.
