I did think about that. I hope i am wrong about this economy. A lot of people who have lower income jobs are not "online". I am not buying in to this recovery spin. I think it is just to try to get elected. Obama got elected when the so called numbers were a lot better. He said then it was the worst economy in 50 years. Now the economy is even worse. The GOP is trying to get elected by saying the bad economy...True...is Obamas fault...False. This mess has been building since before Obama was elected. Do you honestly think we are in an economic recovery?

...you related to Mitt Romney?

Yes, I "honestly think we are in an economic recovery" and I don't believe you "hope" you're "wrong about this economy."

In fact, your point is nonsensical.
