The worst and most uneducated post I have read in this forum. As far as elections go if the economy is good you get reelected or the party gets reelected. Happens most of the time. But politics might be the wrong subject for his forum.
As far as the economy goes I don't think it is going to be a bad recession overall. I will change my mind if I loose my job :). I am in the construction industry in Texas and we are red hot now with plenty of work already on the books for the rest of this year and next. I have some vendors that travel to other area's and they tell me that it is hot in some places and cold or cooling in others. I agree with an earlier post that mentioned the media fuels the fire by saying the sky is falling every time you turn on the tv or radio.
