Oh, my, God. Not again.
Just when the Republicans thought they have Obama beat, the economy comes to his rescue.
The last time it was the Republican orchestrated economic collapse. This time, it’s Barack putting it back together piece by piece.
But by now you would have thought the American public would have learned. The Republicans rip the economy apart, only for Democrats to come in and try to piece it back together. Then the whole cycle repeats.
