"It's The Economy, Stupid"

Borrowing from serpent head James Carville in the election of '92 he stated the way Clinton would win would be to focus on the economy even though the economy was in good shape. Except for the intrusion of Ross Perot who garnered 15% of the vote none of us would have had to experience Bill and Hillary but I always figured God had a plan.

In looking at today's economy it's far better than Bubba Clinton could imagine but it is a different time and a different place as illustrated by today's headlines:

The American job creation machine is sizzling hot.

The U.S. economy added 250,000 jobs in October and the unemployment rate held steady at 3.7 percent, according to Labor Department figures released Friday.

Economists had predicted the economy would add 190,000 jobs and the unemployment rate would to hold steady at 3.7 percent, the lowest level of joblessness in 49-years.

I don't want to be Johnny Rainwater on the subject of elections but voters can be fickle. Think not? Then consider what what the Brits did to Winston Churchill immediately after he led them through WWII.
