Clarification Please: Long Term Unemployed
If the "unemployment benefits for the long term unemployed" don't get approved either this time or in three months, and those folks drop off the "lists of unemployed", does that mean Obama gets credit for "the drop in unemployment rates"?
I don't like the "become invisible" issue (if that is how it works), but how badly must it burn the Republicans that Obama gets the credit?
