The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), a nonpartisan federal agency, originally projected that 11 million jobs will be created during the four-year period after the election in January. A revised projection has been made to support 9.6 million jobs after the election. A more optimistic report from Moody’s Analytics predicts 12 million jobs, and Macroeconomic Advisors raises that to 12.3 million jobs by 2016.Source
If the Repubs won't let anything through then how will Obama create jobs ?
So that's your strategy?
"Hmm....that's a nice looking economy you've got there (swings baseball bat around a few times). It would be crying shame if something bad happened to it."

That's not my strategy at all. That is what you hear coming out of Congress, specifically from Reid..that the Repubs are blocking all the jobs bills.

Interesting
Moody's Analytics, in an August forecast, predicts 12 million jobs will be created by 2016, no matter who is president.
The Congressional Budget Office is required to consider the effects of the so-called “fiscal cliff” if a year-end budget deal is not reached, which many experts believe would push the country into a recession. But even with that caveat, the nonpartisan agency assumes 9.6 million jobs will be created in the next four years. (This is a revision downward; CBO had estimated 11 million in January.)
if you believe that number, I got a bridge to sell ya
