I provided a link. Not that it matters, you will ultimately find a way to defend his statements, throw in how it was out of "context" and such.

The next caller he took called him out on this. Medved responded by saying "If the economy recovers, Obama will exploit this" So he doesn't want the economy to improve because Obama would exploit this and the GOP would lose in the upcoming elections. Conservative patriotism as it's best.

That's exactly the reason some on this forum only post when Obama is down
a point in the polls but not up, when the economy looks dismal instead of
showing hints of recovery etc etc etc.

What you and many others like you don't seem to "get" is Conservatives know what a disaster for the country Obama and the Democrats policies are.

Hell no they want to see any improvement because then they won't gain seats in Nov. Then Congress can pass cap/trade, open the borders, give complete amnesty to the already 15-20M illegals here, etc. etc.

But that won't happen. The economy will never improve as long as those idiots are still in Washington. Tax & spend doesn't do anything except enrich the politicians and impoverish the citizens.

It is nor the possible economic recovery that will doom the Republican party, it is the rise of the Tea Party.
