[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can I just point out that these are preliminary numbers? They will be revised several times over the next 3 months.

Everybody always gets very excited about these short term numbers but the truth is only after 3 months or so they will be reasonably accurate (after those revisions).

Anyway.[/quote]

Im OP

so are you suggesting the number will be revised from 80k to 200k in a few months? i dont think any amount of revision can move the needle to where the 8.2 is looked at as better.

again, the economy needs to produce 200k plus jobs a month until the election to just get at 8%.

im "team obama" and everything, but just like my favorite sports team, i dont window dress how bad they are. if they suck and the losses are there to back it, i cant possibly make an argument that they are somehow still a strong team. it doesnt mean though, ill stop cheering for them.

same thing for obama. the jobs number is shit right now. sure he can beat romney, but the chips are stacked against him as the economy continues to do nothing.[/quote]
