President Obama went from having job losses of 10 million a year (800,000 jobs lost per month) to job gains of 1 million per year as a result of the job stimulus bill, to now 2-3 million jobs created per year. That is a net gain of 11 million jobs after the stimulus bill and 16 million total while Republicans did not participate in any bill to help the jobs situation in America.
That no doubt is a bitter pill for Republicans to swallow. They thought the job stimulus bill would not help the economy and thus voted against it. Now they have to run this November on the slogan "We did nothing to help". Not an easy sell.
