[quote=Anonymous]Republicans have invested heavily in the meme that the economy is poor when, in fact, the economy is actually growing. The answer to the proverbial question "are you better off than you were 4 years ago" is "yes" for most people if they really stop to think about it. The problem is they can't fathom how things MIGHT have turned out had Obama not taken some of the steps he did; you cannot prove a negative. Put it in another light, things could very easily have been a hell of a lot WORSE. But since Republicans have worked so hard to raise expectations for poor jobs reports, they cannot easily dismiss them when they come in. Look for a lot of misdirection (talk about underemployment, talk that these aren't private sector jobs, etc) if the facts don't align with their message (which is increasingly a problem for them).[/quote]
