I know this is going to be the mantra in November and I hope they use it. The GOP should prepare talking points so when Dems say "We don't go back to the failed policies of the Bush administration" they can quickly respond with, "Yeah, we would hate to go back to 5% to 6% unemployment, deficits averaging $160B per year versus $1.4T, stock market at 14,000, etc. etc. The way things are now are so much better." If we go back to prior to January 1, 2007 when Dems took over control of Congress we are looking at our salad days. They are looking unbelievably good to most Americans today.

What is striking to me is the change in the public's attitude. During Bush we had relentless, nonstop bad news about the economy to support Dem election prospects. Most people would say things were pretty bad but I am doing OK. Now people say things are pretty bad for the country and for me and my friends and family. This despite the Orwellian statements by the OCarter administration that things are getting better.

Thank the Lord for the alternate media which is telling the truth. Its no wonder Newsweek just sold for $1 and the second highest bidder stated they overpaid.
