Artificial suppression of CPI figures, bailouts, money printing, and deficit spending, not to mention a delay in defense layoffs at Lockheed, as per Obama's request, until after the election. They all serve to boost gov't figures in the short run, but none of it is sustainable over the long run. Dude, consumer confidence is up. ADP reported good job numbers. BLS reported even better ones. Housing sales and starts are up. Auto sales are doing well. ISM reported a good number. Do you think they are all in a fix with Obama? Seriously. Admit it MM, you have been wrong........and your cronies have been wrong. And you voted for the wrong man for president. See where you ideology got you.

MM, you seem pretty depressed. And that is unnecessary. Things are looking up. Once the economy picks up, revenues will start to roll in and the deficit will start to shrink. You have been advocating an approach that Romney advocated with the auto industry. when your car breaks down on the highway, do you abandon the car and walk away? Or do you try to start it back up using unconventional methods (jumping it, walking miles to get gas ina container etc. etc.) And then sometimes you wave some people (similar to Govt. doing what it did with the auto industry) to come and push the car to the nearest gas station. And then once the car starts up.........(you know the story from here) So save yourself some pain. Everything will be OK. Looks like Obama is going to win. The Dems may even gain a seat in the Senate and hopefully the Congress, like Christie did, will agree to go and meet Obama ha;f way.
