I think the White House probably feels like it dodged a bullet. It looks like we don't have an economy that's going into a full stall. These numbers are pretty good, especially when compared to the previous few months. And what Mitt Romney just talked about, that's not a plan. Those are platitudes. I mean, he tosses out we're going to have better schools, we're going to lower regulations, we're going to lower taxes, we're going to increase defense spending, and the blue skies will arrive. He provides no details. And all the independent analysts that look at what he's put out so far suggest that if he's going to do all this, he's got to get money from somewhere. And if he's going to give more to the people in the top 2 to 5 percent, he's going to take away resources from the middle class. And that's what the campaign battle is going to be about.
