If Romney Hammers This Point, He Wins

If Mitt Romney were to hammer home the following point to the American public, IMO he will win the election:

In January 2009 when Obama took office, the unemployment rate was 7.8 percent. Last month, the unemployment rate was 7.9 (in October 2012), up from 7.8 percent in September 2012.

He should use the following information to boost his point that Obama has hurt the economy home:

- 46,681,833: The number of Americans receiving food stamps as of July was 46.6 million—the most in one month ever. Today, 15 percent of Americans receive food stamps, an increase of 45 percent since President Obama took office.

- 15 percent: The official poverty rate in 2011 according to the Census Bureau— the same as 2010 and up from 14.3 percent in 2009. This was the highest poverty rate since 1993.

- 40.2: The average number of weeks it takes for job seekers to find a job rose to 40.2 weeks in October 2012. The average time it took to find when President Obama took office was 19.8 weeks.


If this information is delivered in the manner as outlined above which uses actual facts that cannot be disputed, Romeny wins hands down.

Why do you think those numbers will change with Romney?? It really doesnt matter who wins, the solutions are simple, but history shows us, that NONE of them wants to change anything...
Try to compare those numbers with bush, clinton, bush and the rest of them, has anything really changed??

Voting doesnt change a thing, YOU have to be the change.

People are not that stupid. They realized they've been had. Romney will overcome the MOM (Margin of Media) and win on November 6th.

I'm not insinuating the electorate is stupid, I'm suggesting that hammering those facts to the electorate would allow them to understand the harsh realities about the economy since 2008 and not the unsupported statements about the economy that the Obama team are trying to pass off as facts.
