That's a theme I have been harping on for some time..

Analysts can ties themselves in knots trying to divine why folks do not act in what is obviously their own self interest

I don't think it goes much further than the president having thick lips and nappy hair...

..and a feckless opposition party that blatantly exploits this known bias to benefit their contributors

Obama's race has meant billions for the Koch brothers and others....

Terrible final Q1 GDP figures, and inflation is getting out of control. Socialism, Keynesianism, Cronyism, and Lawlessness by the Administration aren't working very well. May we go back to Capitalism and the Rule of Law now? On behalf of the 99%, may we please?
-------------------
Ugly GDP figures: The Commerce Department said the economy shrank 2.9% in the first quarter, even uglier than the 1.8% decline that economists from Briefing.com had predicted. Analysts were expecting a weak final figure for the period, which included unusually harsh winter weather. In that regard, investors are largely shrugging off the bad news, and have donned their forward-thinking caps. CNN
