…And This Is Exactly Why Democrats Have Lost Trust on the Economy and Won’t Win in 2014

By Mike Miller 16 hours ago



Politico’s Maggie Haberman showed up on CNN Sunday to admit that even Democrats now acknowledge that Barack Obama’s economic message isn’t working. One reason for the disconnect is abundantly clear: jobs.
While the administration touted last week’s announcement that the unemployment rate fell from 6.7% in March to 6.3% in April, the primary factor in the decline was this: more than 800,000 people either stopped looking for a job or left the job market altogether.
Anyway, do the math: The administration claims 288,000 jobs were created in April, but the 800,000 pushes the total number of Americans not in the labor force to a record high 92,594,000.
If you were a Democrat, would you run on these numbers?
