True, but one cannot make the argument that this economy is thriving, despite Friday's numbers.

Obama's been making the case that he inherited a terrible mess and now he can plausibly say we're digging our way out.

So what happens when Obama wins the election? Will Republicans claim the election was fake too?

One more question- Were Democrats this bad when Bush was president? Were we equally petty and delusional? My memory fails me on this one.

Of course they'll claim it was a fix. Look how many Republicans believe ACORN is why Obama won in 2008. To accept that Dems win legitimacy would mean accepting they have a right to govern, and that is unacceptable. We will have congressional investigations for months of Obama wins.
