If those guys are the best you can do for "strategy", you are in deep shit. The election results are who is a better sales person, not whether the economy is going in the right direction. Neither Ricter nor AK has been able to stand toe to toe with me on anything economic. Not once. Instead, they avoid answering tough questions, redirect the topic and flat out refuse to answer. Then, Ricter puts me on ignore when he can no longer debate anything. There are polls that can give you the populations perception of whether the economy is moving in the right direction. As for facts, you can believe spin, or you can educate yourself accordingly.
Well, we have the econ talk. Doesn't matter at this point now, does it. We are now fighting over who will preside over the Big One. If you think we can possibly turn it around now, I am all ears.
Any past proof of that you can find, please post. Sans that, most here have seen me school you over and over and over. Hell, you earned the name El Matador over your canny ability to dodge questions! Ole'! My invitation to re-engage in any number of economic topics you ran from still stands.
Yeah, and I also think we go to the moon if we only had warp drive. Now, realistically, how can we do this, Ivan? Okay, that may have come off harsh, just sayin, we get Mittens or Ba-roke. What to do?
Krugman said it best, "goo goo, gah gah, debasement, theft!" Hey, there's a motor vehicle sales report coming on Thursday, how 'bout that!
