Many Americans (including myself) are frustrated about the lack of job creation. This shadows any accomplishments the Congress and the White House have achieved during their recent tenure: cutting taxes for 95 percent of families (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/19/us/politics/19taxes.html?scp=1&sq=obama%20tax%20cut&st=cse) and the advent of universal health care. Efforts to have universal health care dates back to the 1800's and here we have it! It isn't perfect, but it is a start. But who cares? Where are the jobs? I need to bring bread to the table, I have children to feed, my little girl needs new shoes, and the list goes on.
Perhaps on election day, we have the chance to oust those responsible. Who are they? The democrats, the republicans, the tea party (also part of the republican party)? One thing is for sure. Whoever wins, the rebuilding of our economy will not happen overnight. The current disaster took many years in the making. So should we elect republicans to congress and essentially cause a gridlock to passing future bills or should we give the president more time to fix the morass we are in?
