It's the economy!!!!Every presidential candidate with a bad economy going is in for trouble.
The "short memory" American voter needs to decide who and what philosophy gave us this bad economy and whether we are making progress or not.
It didn't happen overnight and it will not end overnight.
The great disappointment for me is that FDR had enough sense to help the American farmer---most numerous small business in the US---first. Thus far only the large businesses have been helped with tax money.
Banks still aren't loaning money and the auto industry got good reviews for its products this year. For an industry still 32% owned by the voter it begs the question:
Why aren't the prices of new cars reduced by that amount paid by us????
