Romney is a true 1%'er, but Obama is trying his best to catch up.

"What Obama has been doing is spearheading an intensified assault on the working class. He has escalated the attack on working class living standards that has been underway for more than three decades, focusing on a drastic and permanent reduction in wages and benefits.

Well, let's see..... Kudlow, Brinker, Cavuto, and Sullivan disagree with you. The recovery, weak as it is, is still a recovery by definition, that is, two consecutive quarters of positive GDP growth.

Let's not get hung up on the definition of economic recovery or two quarters of growth. Look at the bigger picture and the direction Obama is taking our country. Not so rosy, is it?

Meaning, we are down in the very pits of this recession. And the only good news is that, miniscule though the "growth" is while we're that far down, we aren't getting down any deeper.

Yeah, I'd vote for the guy whose economic "theories" accomplished that.

I'm doing very well. Have a great career, great benefits, work for a great company, zero debt.

Why on earth would we ever want to return to the failed GOP policies that gave us the Great Bush Depression? Trusting a Republican with the American economy or --god forbid--foreign policy, is like trusting Michael Jackson to babysit your kids.

Obama four more years!

Just guessing here but .. You're 'career' doesn't require much thought?

Exactly. Having a gold star on you WalMart nametag for 10 years service does not make it a "career".

If things are still so bad and not really getting better, why is the GOP now trying to take credit for the current state of the economy?

The “Deepest Slump" is far better than "the Greatest Depression in History" that we would be stuck in if we had elected those Republican incompetents. We would be mired in the purists “austerity and frugality” measures like the disasters the banks have forced on much of the world.
