Hey, it’s not like Obama has had three years in office . . . no, wait?
Via Politico:
The Senate’s top two Democratic and Republican leaders agree on at least one thing: Democrats will try to make the 2012 election about George W. Bush.
After occupying the White House for three years, Democrats will try to blame everyone but themselves, including the Bush administration, for the sour economy and jobs crisis, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Wednesday in a floor exchange with Majority Leader Harry Reid.
Reid, a Nevada Democrat and close ally of President Barack Obama, conceded that McConnell wasn’t completely off base.
“I do think the presidential election will be based on what took place in the Bush administration, how we tried to recover from that, how things have been exacerbated because of the tsunami and European debt crisis,” Reid said.
Not to mention this strategy could easily backfire as the Bush years look a million times better than those under Obama.
