John, Larry Kudlow is giddy at the flatness of the job growth. He says at least it is not going down. I would be interested to know what factors have caused the rise in unemployment from 5.6% to 5.7% The flatness in job growth and rise in unemployment are neutralizing factors and I wonder if this is similar to the past two instances under the Bush presidency where the economy started to look good and it failed to move ahead. The next quarter will be interesting with the rise in oil prices looming on the horizon. Anyone willing to explain the rise in unemployment numbers. Wonder if the White House calculator is being used again. The swing states have a lot of unemplyment. Silicon valley is not doing much. Are you folks watching Larry Kudlow, the eternal spin doctor on CNBC.
