It's the economy, stupid!

Here's James Carville again ! Middle class has been hit by a truck!

- James Carville Interview: CNBC -

The middle class needs a lifeline.

Apparently, Obama playing 100 rounds of golf didn't help the middle class.

Obamas economic policies have failed and the middle class is in trouble.

Fixing the middle class economic malaise will require bold action. - Where is

Obamas plan to save the middle class ???

James Carville says we don't have enough demand.


He appears to be struggling with economics 101.
Maybe we should lower the

unemployment rate to 5% James? Then people could qualify to buy a new/used home.

They need Jobs! We need 400,000 jobs created every month.

80,000 is a disgrace.




Watch the whole interview at CNBC.

- The Kudlow Report - James Carville

This is bad news for Obama. We are suppose to be obsessed with Romneys Swiss Bank

accounts! James Carville has shifted the focus back to the economy!!!

Tell that to the so called job creators that are getting tax breaks to create jobs but don't live up to their end of the bargain. He could take the tax breaks away but that would be class warfare wouldn't it. At least he tried to extend the tax breaks for the middle class but congress voted it down So maybe Carville should whine about that instead of laying all the blame on Obama.

The war on the middle class has been on since LONG before Obama came into office. Seriously, people need to quit being so short-sighted.

We can do better. Small businesses can create 400,000 jobs a month.

Stop attacking them with - unending regulations -.

Obama only made it worse. Just look at the ripple effects of his actions.

Sure, obama has made it worse. To say its HIS deal though is either naive, or disingenuous.

This has been a long process. It started with Reagan, and Clinton really paved the way for where we are.

This is a systemic issue, not a partisan one.

Sure, Obama made it worse....so reward Obama with 4 more years ???

--------

We can do better. Obama is turning back the clock on welfare reform.

Obama wants us all dependent on the government.
We need to fire him November 2012.

You're missing one part in the whole obama thing though-and that is that he is handcuffed. Its downright silly to blame a president when the other party has outwardly made it known that their ONLY goal is to make him a one term president.

Show me a candidate who can honestly say theyll do better.

Again, it's a systemic problem. It can only be fixed with a system change. Period. This partisan nonsense only serves to further the agenda.

Obama = Socialist.....big government

Romney = Capitalist....small government....stop writing regulations that strangle small

businesses.

Romney will approve a Tax Repatriation Holiday to bring $$$ billions back to the USA.

Romney will repeal ObamaCare and remove a cloud hovering over the Fortune 500.

Neither of those things are true. Romney is a corporate whore. Obama is not a socialist as much as people like to throw that term around. And in the end, they are just different sides of the same coin.

Partisan bs doesnt help anything.

Obama was going to give a tax break to everyone that made under 250K a year. Only about 3% of the middle class isn't covered by this. In fact Obama has passed fewer regulations against small businesses than the last president did and daddy Bush back in 92 really stuck it to the small businesses. And the regulations the GOP is crying about is against banks and wall street. The people that brought this country to it's knees but they don't need regulations they need imprisonment.

The problem has been going on for a long time alright.

The Dems of 2000 vowed to make Bush a "one termer" too, I remember it.

They were absolutely furious after the Gore fiasco.

But yet we saw this even after the financial disaster of 9-11.

Thank you for finally pointing out the truth about this whine fest. Let the wealthy do as they please to hell with what they have already done to this country.

We'll take care of all the tax cuts in January 2013.

The clock is ticking on Obama. The DNC Convention in September will be a disaster.

The Jobs Growth Reports are flushing Obama down the toilet.

80,000 jobs is a disgrace.

Bush's policies were in effect for most of 09 so you can't lay all the blame for it on him.

Those $$$ trillion deficits are a disgrace.

I'm glad Obama is going to be a 1 term president just like Jimmy Carter.

- 2 democrats who trashed the US economy -

Jimmy Carter? History lessons are apparently needed, all around. This is just sad. Reagan destroyed the economy. Carter took the long term approach to attempt a SYSTEMIC fix. Reagan repealed it all.

As usual, americans were FAR to short-sighted and ignorant to see that a short term hardship would make for long term prosperity. They couldnt see passed their noses.

Funny how history repeats itself.

Who's going to take take of the tax breaks? Romney hasn't said anything about taxes for the middle class. All he talks about is more tax breaks for the wealthy. They have been getting breaks all along and just look at all the jobs they have created. And if you think Romney is going to win you really need to wake up.

Isn't it funny how the GOP cries when Obama blames something on Bush? Reagan blamed Carter for eight years but not a peep out of the GOP.

More tax breaks for everyone.

It turns out it's a bad idea to raise taxes during a recession. It only makes it worse.

What history books have you been reading?


Jimmy Carter had sky high 18% interest rates and sky high tax rates.

Don't you remember the Reagan recovery?

Jimmy Carter & Obama are the worst presidents this nation has ever had.
