It's not the wind, it's the sound of republicans moaning in despair.

But I think to the average set of voters' ears, a decrease in the unemployment rate is the most important thing.

Only 96,000 jobs added, below expectations. And lost 40,000 in revisions. All per Ezra Klein tweets.

Be a downer all you want, but this is good.

Is it enough? No, more jobs are needed. Nothing will happen on that front with Mitt Romney in the White House.

So, I will take any good news!
