As for either guy beating Obama, I'm not so sure of that. I have said before the election is Obama's to lose. If the unemployment level continues to drop and is in the low to mid 7's by election time Obama will be tough to beat if he runs his campaign correctly. However, if the unemployment level hovers somewhere in the area it is in or gets worse again he is very vulnerable.
I think the unemployment "rate" won't matter as much as how many people are actually unemployed.
obama and the left may be able to fool some people into thinking that unemployment is going down but he won't be able to fool those who are unemployed.
