As the GOP continues to scream about unemployment, today's
mildly positive
jobs report shows that the economy has gained back almost all of the
jobs lost since Obama took office. It's possible we'll see a small net
gain by election day.
The
president only needs job growth of just over 105,000 jobs created in
each of the next three months to be able to say — undisputedly — that he
created more jobs than were lost since the start of his administration.
Hitting 316,001 jobs would be an important rhetorical victory for Obama
— and missing the mark would provide Romney and Republicans with
another attack to use against the president in the final days before the
election.
