Correct me if I'm wrong, but it would appear that all the employment projections in that link were below what has happened, not just Obama's, which was my original point when looking at the graph.

However, I would gather that the projections were made in late 2008 or early 2009, so that is later than what the graph might imply.

The two points I take away are 1) economic predictions are not very accurate, and 2) even in hindsight you can't get agreement on attribution because of ideological bias (mine included). That says something about the difficulty of ever arriving at common ground on how to approach economic problems.
