I caught it and thought it was exactly on point for the dems. I remember during the prosperous Bush years how I always used to hear how the economy was tanking. Really? Well, they worked hard to get us there.

Bad economy? Blame the democrats. They were in charge. NO GETTING AROUND IT NO MATTER HOW HARD THEY TRY>
Gas prices have been at a all time high and still all the people voting for Obama?
Obama told them that if you vote for me this time I will give you gas free!
