I've been thinking about something like this for a while now. Economies are cyclical, so there should be a recovery at some point in time, regardless of policy. When the economy recovered under Bush, and the jobs reports, which had been negative for so long, moved consistently positive, the cry by the naysayers was that the jobs were all at McDonald's. That they were all part time, or minimum wage jobs, etc. Will people be doing the same when/if the economy begins to recover under Obama? My guess is that the people who criticized job growth before, will be celbrating it now, and the people who defended job growth under Bush, will be saying they're all from Walmart.
Such is the case with Coke, or Pepsi.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."
Leo Tolstoy, 1897
