Remember first time Obama won we just entered the Great Recession. Republicans were in charge for 8 years and fairly blamed. When Clinton won we were in a recession.
I still firmly believe America votes on economy over anything else. So Dems better hope for a crippling recession soon.

I agree. I think the Dems are screwed with the candidates they have.
Economy is good, unemployment is low and people got their short term tax cut in their pocket. It's not a time for change and risk taking.
