Obama’s camaigners admitted, voters don’t have same level of entusisasm

Washington:  President Barack Obama’s campaigners admitted that there is not the same level of enthusiasm among voters that was four years ago. However they told that Americans are not that dissatisfied with the administration.
The Obama campaign acknowledged voters were concerned about the economy, but said the administration inherited unique and challenging conditions from former President Bush.

Obama’s senior campaign adviser Robert Gibbs reiterated Cutter and O’Malley’s statements. Gibbs said voters “understand that we have been through a traumatic economic experience in the country, unlike anything that we have ever seen.”

“I don’t think that there is voter disappointment.” “And voters understand it took us years and years of tremendously bad decisions by running up huge debts, and providing huge tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires that didn’t create jobs, and they understand that it is going to take us a while to get out of that mess,” Gibbs told.

Responding to questions, Gibbs said nobody is sitting up here saying this is 2008. “What has happened since the election in 2008 and right now, again, is this huge economic calamity caused by a series of bad decisions that were made before the president ever got there,” he said.

The Romney campaign was quick to capitalize on such acknowledgements by the Obama advisors. “Today’s admission by Democratic Governor O’Malley that Americans aren’t better off today than they were four years ago is more proof that President Obama’s policies aren’t working,” the Republican vice presidential candidate, Paul Ryan, said.

“President Obama’s failure of leadership has led to 42 straight months of unemployment above 8 per cent, 23 million Americans struggling for work, USD 5 trillion in new debt and a USD 716 billion cut in Medicare to fund Obamacare,” Ryan said.
