Some numbers

[ymarkov]

US unemployment was reported at 6.5% this morning, the highest it's been since March 1994. Meaning that it was generally lower throughout most of the Bush years than the Clinton years.

Voter turnout rate was virtually the same as in 2004. More people, same percentage.

From Newsbusters:
...there has been virtually no change to the percentage of folks claiming to be liberal or conservative in their political ideology since 2004.

Here are the relevant numbers (2004 here and 2008 here):

• 21 percent claimed to be liberal in 2004 versus 22 percent in 2008
• 34 percent claimed to be conservative in both 2004 and 2008
