The Battle for America 2010: Signs of a Gathering Superstorm in November
Too few realize that this is NOT Obama’s economy…nor is it George W. Bush’s economy. Not in the true sense. Economies belong to Congress. The Democrats in Congress have run this economy since January 2007. What we’re living right now was wrought by Democrats in elected office. Obama accelerated the death spiral by removing the attenuating influence of a veto and pushing for more “drunken sailor” spending, but in the end Congress actually owns this mess.
The American electorate gave the “anti-Bush” policies and politicians a shot in the 2006 and 2008 elections. Now they can see where this has led them. People all have those issues that are important to them. In the not-too-distant past Jews voted as a bloc, Hispanics voted as a bloc, Blacks voted as a bloc and the elderly voted as a bloc. Whites have never voted as a bloc. But today those traditional voting blocs are eroding as folks feel threatened by more than “their issues” coming under fire. People, at the core, are not stupid. You can’t keep spendin’ when the money’s all gone. And they know it…
