LMAO. First Skanklozi says we are not running on Obamacare in 2016, now they can't talk about the ...... economic recovery.

What's left to talk about? Obama's romps with his personal trainer?

Democrats Told "Don't Mention 'Economic Recovery' - It's A Political Loser"

Democratic strategists have made a blunt declaration in an election-year memo, Advice to Democrats: Don't say 'recovery' "Don't talk about the economic recovery. It's a political loser." Stan Greenberg, James Carville and others wrote that in head-to-head polling tests the mere mention of the word "recovery" is trumped by a Republican assertion that the Obama administration has had six years to get the economy moving and its policies haven't worked. But, but, but... stocks are at all-time highs?

As AP reports, Election-year memo to Democratic candidates: Don't talk about the economic recovery. It's a political loser.

"As a start, Democrats should bury any mention of the recovery. That message was tested ... and it lost to the Republican message championed by Karl Rove," they wrote.

So say Democratic strategists in a blunt declaration that such talk skips over "how much trouble people are in, and doesn't convince them that policymakers really understand or are even focusing on the problems they continue to face."

In addition, Stan Greenberg, James Carville and others wrote that in head-to-head polling tests the mere mention of the word "recovery" is trumped by a Republican assertion that the Obama administration has had six years to get the economy moving and its policies haven't worked

All the Democrats can do is attack, smear, ridicule, and create divide......basically, stay their course.

Except that in Red and to a lesser degree purple states there has been recovery. In some districts of FL the number of refugees from blue states who have yet to lose their bad voting habits there are many opportunities for the Ds to screw up the state but they are not running candidates. Likewise in AL and MS according to my extended family who live in those states. The Ds are going to provide the Rs 3-5 senate seats, 2-3 governor's mansions and who knows what else simply because they are such ballless boobs.
