          Generally yes, but I'm not sure trickle down sells anymore. By right Mitt Romney should have been elected President easily. Over 7% unemployment, economy had been in a 4 year slowdown (Carter didn't cause the economic malaise in the late 70's either but paid for it), a slick businessman comes along and promises massive tax cuts and defense spending that will magically pay for itself...and he got his a ss whipped. 2012 should have been a wake up call that while you may enact massive tax cuts for GOP campaign contributors once in office, don't campaign on it. As Obama hilariously told Mittens in a debate, "1982 called. It wants its economic polices back."

            It sold in Wisconsin and Kansas big time. Kansas finally is starting to reject it. I'm not so sure Wisconsin has yet.

              The president always gets too much credit or too much blame for the economy. There are so many other factors at work, but hey, he's the president.

                True, but even Louisiana rejected it! Lets see how North Carolina reacts this November as well.

                  Not sure about this either. There has been a systemic driving by the GOP of trickle down for the last 36 years. It's left destruction in it's wake across the globe. It's still prevalent and the current GOP nominee is running on it. The ups and downs of the economy would have been a lot less disastrous if this disastrous idea had never existed. Obama's recovery plans were hamstrung by GOP in Congress who clung to trickle down by rejecting over and over again the infrastructure spending the country needed to boost the economy and rebuild.

                  Yet, there is always money for the Middle East. Always.

                    1. The first woman running for President in a major party and the biggest complaint about her debate performance was that she was "over-prepared". Definitely sounds like someone who was handed everything without putting in the work. The fact that she is resented for having the audacity to believe she deserves a job just because she's qualified says more about you than her.

                    2. Whatever "lack of candor" she might have certainly hasn't stopped anyone from going over every single moment of her last 30 years with a fine-toothed comb. I don't really care if the President isn't buddies with the press as long as they do their job.

                    3. The State Department got hacked. She didn't. Scoreboard doesn't lie.

                          Donald is a slut (see: Marla Maples), and his BMI is too high (medical records from last week) so he's fat.

                          How'd I do?

                            This a long but surprisingly good summary out of Tiger Beat on the Potomac about the e-mail/server issue. Sic, you're SOL on this one I'm afraid.
