No Church In The Wild!

                           
Republicans are gleeful that the economy is tanking. They practically rooting for the president and the economy to fail so they could get back into power.

This month's recent job reports shows a slow growth. The nation's unemployment has uptick to 8.2%.

The Republicans are looking to bring forth austerity measures to cut domestic spending.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada)
Across the Eurozone there's a high jobless rate having 11% unemployment. China, the fast growing economic sector is slowing down.

We see how our partisan bickering and grandiose brought us.

More problems.

This gives the Republican nominee Mitt Romney an opportunity to bring forth ideas that can better or match that of President Barack Obama.

Most people who aren't familiar with common terms like austerity. Look at what the state Republican legislators and governors are doing! Look how the U.S. House of Representatives accomplished. They want to eliminate government. So that means cuts in the public sector.

That means laying off workers that may be key to the safety, health and infrastructure of the United States.

I mean we had a Republican House and Democratic Senate. They are trying to defeat each other with bills that increase massive spending or bills that increase massive cuts. Each are met through either a filibuster in the U.S. Senate or a test vote in the U.S. House. And of course threats of veto from President Obama.

Now we got to get things straight here. We didn't get into the mess overnight and we're not going to get out of it in a mere two to six years.
                  
We seen what the political parties offer and yet none of them are pleasing the American people.

We lost more jobs in the public sector than in the private sector. Look here, that's the state and federal jobs that most people are crowing about. Those public sector workers who include teachers, police officers, fire fighters, maintenance workers, and those in the federal work force.

The Republicans want to cut the U.S. Postal Service. That eliminates over 400,000 jobs already.

The Republicans are not willing to raise taxes on millionaires and billionaires.

School districts have enough trouble trying to pass levies because the voters aren't concerned with paying teacher's salaries or funding school activities to keep children away from the streets.

Both parties are going to put pressure on the president to break the fold. But what could happen if he does?

Will the left blame him for compromising? Will the right blame him for not compromising?

Speaker of The House John Boehner (R-Ohio)
It wouldn't matter anyways. According to the Gallup Poll, most figure that Americans' overall mood about the state of the country is not favorable for an incumbent seeking re-election, given that a president's re-election partly depends on voters' satisfaction with his first four years in office.

About one-quarter of Americans, 24%, are currently satisfied with the way things are going in the country, while 74% are dissatisfied. This is comparable to the dour mood found in 1992 before George W. Bush lost his re-election bid, and is far worse than that seen in 2004, 1996, and 1984, years in which each of the sitting presidents won. Still, the current satisfaction rating is more than double where it was last August and September.

The economy still dominates Americans' views of the nation's Most Important Problem, historically a negative sign for an incumbent seeking re-election.

All in all, Americans' relatively low satisfaction ratings, and the fact that the economy remains by far the top problem in voters' minds, present a formidable challenge for an incumbent president seeking re-election.

So President Barack Obama,  you got work to do! This is the summer months of an election.

Mitt Romney hasn't sealed a strong front against the president. We'll wait until he'll pick his running mate and of course his debate performances.

Mitt Romney will have to prepare for a debate with the president in October. Romney comes off as a weak debater and yet still delivers knock out blows. I haven't seen much of plan from the camp, but expect it to go negative like it did against Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum.
