Plenty of jobs in the paper here in Wyoming. We are also showing the lowest unemployment rate in the country.

Lesseee here, no state income tax, low property taxes, budget running at huge surplus, new schools constructed all over the state, probably the highest net teacher pay in the nation, lots of job openings.

Where are all these folks seeking employment, and not that I want them here, apparently they do not want to work.

Likely things will get worse.

As far as re-electing Bush, 04' the economy was doing quite well, at least compared to now. What is it- no POTUS has been re elected with a unemployment higher than 7.6% since FDR.
Obama is no FDR, but as I said in another thread I think he will get the die hard Dem vote and the black vote no matter what.
Yes, but hardcore Dems and blacks aren't enough -- not nearly enough. He needs a majority of independents but every indication now is that he won't get close to half of them.
