^^^^^ CB: It's the economy stupid ? (smile)

We are close to the next year governor races of course. Not that O will be reelected, but we _are_ a long way from the next Pres election.

Finally, isn't a bit of a myth that the President can turn the economy around. The government doesn't run this economy, which doesn't make the article's point untrue, just that O is at the mercy of the "Invisible Hand" , no ?
