WARNING: Romney supporter!

Remember, Romney supporters don't count employment losses.

Conclusion, this is a trick question.

Clinton:
Since 1961, for 52 years now, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats 24. In those 52 years, our private economy has produced 66 million private sector jobs.

So what's the job score?

Republicans: twenty-four million. Democrats: forty-two.

Saying that, I would have to parse the data to see if the party in the White House was responsible for policies that led to that job creation or whether it was other factors.
Before I watched Clinton speech, I saw this posted on Bloomberg about which party is better for the economy (it's a video): Republicans Vs. Democrats: Who Boosts Stocks?: Video - Bloomberg

Try again at responding to the point again.

If Democrats do a better job at job creations, then why did a Democratic Congress allow unemployment rates to exceed 10% a few years ago?

I mean if they are responsible for creations, then clearly you're responsible for the losses, right?

You see, we believe that "We're all in this together'' is a far better philosophy than "You're on your own.''

So who's right?

Well, since 1961, for 52 years now, the Republicans have held the White House 28 years, the Democrats 24. In those 52 years, our private economy has produced 66 million private sector jobs.

Now, there's -- there's a reason for this. It turns out that advancing equal opportunity and economic empowerment is both morally right and good economics.
Why? Because poverty, discrimination, and ignorance restrict growth.

Interesting.
Very interesting indeed.

They're most likely lying. They have to appease all voters, even the delusional. There's no way you can involve yourself in politics, and watch the ebb and flow of the human race, and not question the existence of a merciful, all knowing. all loving God.

You mean the "stuff" the Dems have foisted upon our once proud and free country? You've buried us in "stuff" up to our necks and freedom is about to be smothered by the stink of the Dem agenda unless we can shovel it out the door! Does the figure $16+ TRILLION mean anything to you?

President Clintons brilliant speach last night will sway many independants to vote Democrat.
