Headline tomorrow should be: "Oh, you know, we were wrong, it's actually 7.7%."

Hell of a lot better than losing 800,000 jobs.

Best rise in 30 years?

From March 2004 to September 2004, the unemployment rate fell 0.4% under incumbent Bush.

From March 2012 to September 2012, the unemployment rate fell 0.4% under incumbent Obama.

While the rate fell 0.3% from August to September 2012...

It ALSO fell 0.3% April to May 2010...

AND fell 0.4% from November to December 2010!
