one question dems need to answer

tho the prez and his party often state [correctly, in my view] that bush and gop policies caused the recession and current high unemployment, the other side points out that the downward slide didn't begin till after the dems took the congressional majority after the '06 election.

most folk don't know enough about economics to grasp how time lags come between causes and effects. that's why the dems are getting blamed for unemployment.

dems need to respond. they need to show how gop actions led to crises and catastrophes. they need to do it point by point. and they need to do it convincingly.
