It's The Economy Stupid

Not Cap and Tax. Not Class Warfare. Not Obamacare. No. It's NOT Liberal Policies themselves, It's what they produce.

Hey folks,

Remember James Carville? Back in 1992, started by James, then widely used during Bill Clinton's successful 1992 Presidential Campaign against George H. W. Bush. Bush was considered a shoe in and unbeatable because of what was going on in the World such as the end of the Cold War and the Persian Gulf War. It worked. Why? Because people care about their pocketbook. They care about their wallets.

Remember back on Sunday, April 18, 2010, I told you my theory of The Bubble Factor. I said this.

You see, the Tea Parties are a PRODUCT of the anger. They are the result, not the cause. What about Talk Radio? The Blogs? {I guess that would mean me as well.} Again, the short answer is both yes and no. So what IS the cause? The Bubble Factor.

Let me try to explain it this way. Most people, from all walks of life, live somewhere in the middle of the spectrum of life. They live in their happy homes, drive their happy cars, go off to school then work. They have their hobbies, and they meet one another, leave their Parents and join together, having children of their own, cycle repeats.

From time to time, something will pull at their heart strings. They will donate some money, go down and volunteer at a soup kitchen, or join a cause. Yet, at the end of the day, there they are in their happy little beds, drifting off to Dream Land.

Truth is, most people have no clue as to what reality is. As long as the outside does not penetrate their little bubble, they are happy. They go to Church, say Amen, go back into their little worlds. They rarely take the time to truly look around to see what they can see.

I'm not saying this is a bad thing. No, I'm not judging anyone. Simply stating reality. For most, Politics is even more alluding. For most, Politics is about two months, every two years. One Politician says one thing, the other says something else, they go with, if they even bother to Vote, the one that best sounds most related to the view they possess. Most do not bother to learn anything beyond what they hear on the local News.

Once in a while though, something comes along and penetrates their little bubble. Then they start to look more deeply into whatever it is. A disease, War, Death or a loved one, and sadly, FINANCES.

Well? Is there any doubt that their FINANCES are taking quite a beating as of late? EVERYONE is feeling it. A new ABC NEWS Poll shows Reality. It's NOT about Race. It's not abut Obamacare. Well, it IS. But not about Obamacare itself. It's not about Class Warfare. It's about the Economy Stupid. According to ABC News - Anger About the Economy Fuels Republican Advantage GOP More PO'ed About Economy, and More Likely to Vote By ANALYSIS by GARY LANGER

That's part of the takeaway from the latest ABC News/Yahoo! News poll. Its results identify why the public's economic discontent is playing so strongly in the Republican Party's favor in the upcoming midterm elections: in elections, anger works.

This national survey finds that Republicans are markedly more likely than other Americans to describe themselves as "angry" about the economy. And angry people, by a wide margin, are more apt to blame the Democratic Party than the GOP for the problem.

That's because it IS the Democrats that got us where we are. It IS Obama and Crew. It IS Liberal Ideals.

Angry folks, for good measure, also are far less apt than others to believe the economy's started to show signs of recovery. That pessimism intensifies their hunt for change.

All told, 85 percent of Americans are either angry about the economy or at least dissatisfied with it, according to the survey, produced for ABC and Yahoo! News by Langer Research Associates. That makes economic discontent even higher than anger or dissatisfaction with "the way the federal government is working," at 71 percent in an ABC News/Washington Post poll last week.

I got news for ya. It's NOT just Republicans. ALL Americans are starting to feel it. Those that have it, ain't spending it. Those that don't have it, is losing even more of what they already have little of. No Jobs. Home foreclosing. No credit. NOTHING.

Now I and others have told you, just look around. There is NO Recovery. Oh the Left are trying any and everything that they can to make it appear we are on the road to recovery. They are manipulating the Stock Market. That never lasts long though, because it is not real. They manipulate the Unemployment numbers. They are trying to force some lenders to stop foreclosing, then coming out and saying that this may be a bad thing. They are having Liberal Lackey Organization coming out saying that the Recession ended a YEAR ago. {Sigh}

Yet, if you listen very closely, you can hear it. {Pop} {Pop, pop, pop,} People's Personal little bubbles are popping all over the place. People are waking up. THIS is REALITY. Why do you think no one cares about the Green Movement, or Global Warming, anymore? Well, A - they realize that it is a SCAM. B- They can't afford it. C- They do not want the Government taking over and regulating ANY MORE of their private and personal lives.

Now this piece goes on to attempt to explain it even more, but there really is nothing more to understand. It's the Economy Stupid. The magic is gone. The Dream is becoming a Nightmare for more and more people. It's kind of hard to make promises, when the prior promises are failing miserably. They are promising more of the same. Problem is, we did not want THAT to begin with. We sure enough want no more.
