Democrats lose, economy recovers

Posted on January 4, 2015 | 2 Comments

It’s ironic the Worm is likely to get the credit for the rebounding economy, at least in the Democrat news media. If you can trust the third-quarter 2014 federal growth numbers now, when you certainly couldn’t trust their unemployment numbers before.

Because as commenter Swen Swenson notes at Instapundit, it’s much more likely “…the economy started to rebound about the time it appeared the Democrats would lose the Senate and really came booming back when the votes were counted…” in November. Sure looks that way.

    I still can’t see the point of ascribing economic successes or failures to this or another POTUS or other pols.

    It’s the snooze media that does it. Has done it since at least President Coolidge and probably earlier. It’s nonsense, of course, like so much else they prattle about.

    Presidents do set the tone by their positivity or negativity. But in that department the Worm (“You didn’t build that”) is purely negative, has been for six years, and so obviously can’t have influenced the economy for the better.
