That 8.5% is still higher than it was when he took office.

On one hand, a 0.8% increase in 3.5 years is actually pretty good considering just how terrible things have been.

On the other, seasonal hires always look nice. I'd expect it to be hovering around 9.2-9.5% come the end of January.

People are forecasting UE to go back up because the "Work Force" has dropped since Obama took office. In fact if the same amount of people were still in the work force today vs when Obama took office, the UE rate would be 10.9%

The jobs created were just people who rolled off 99 weeks of UE benefits and had to get a job. Once more people roll back into the work force, more people will be counted as UE and the rate will tick back up

I forgot to add that local governments didnt do a lot of laying off because of the holiday season, and with Natural Gas below $3 the once booming NatGas industry will hault drilling new wells.

depends if they choose to adjust the workforce number again doesn't it? It's not like the UE number is easily calculated (when it should be pretty simple)

Romney heard your appeal for more energy today and delivered...
"Don't be argumentative with the candidate."

This is starting to remind me of Bush's reelection and the Dems put Kerry up as their pick.
