I like David Axelrod, he has a lot on the ball. The link at the title goes to his comments across the spectrum today.
...Americans care much less about the deficit than they do losing their jobs to China. They care less about the deficit than they do about the continued push of America toward a "knowledge worker service economy." They do not believe it has worked and are unlikely to have any more patience with waiting for it to work as they see our trading partners co-opt our hard work in technology and know-how. They want to pull manufacturing back on shore, regardless of political leaning, and they are sick of Wall Street running the government....
We want our manufacturing back. Michigan is building wind turbines. We want to build our railroads, cars, house applicances. We want it back. We had our 'labor' jobs stolen from us and we want them back. Just that simple. We want to punch a clock and make solar panels and stuff. Got it? We want moral manufacturing jobs. We want to be proud of ourselves, our products and our country again. Easy.
