Jim Pethokoukis reveals 13 economic reasons Barack Obama should not be reelected in November.

The charts that make the point the best way include:

Essentially, this is the weakest economic recovery, in terms of GDP growth and unemployment improvement, since the Great Depression. (Contrary to what the big-government types want you to believe, the Great Depression was finally ended not by the buildup to World War II, but by the victory in World War II.) There have been predictions after past recessions of a “jobless recovery”; well, this is a jobless recovery. And what do you suppose will happen to economic growth after the effects of $5-a-gallon gas hit the economy?

Pethokoukis summarizes:

To me, it all adds up to Stagnation Nation rather than a Return to Prosperity. What voters will have to decide is whether Obamanomics—the $800 billion stimulus, Obamacare, Dodd-Frank, anti-energy regulation—has been a net plus or a net minus. Did Obama make things better or worse?

If you vote for Obama in November, none of this will get better. In fact, stagnation would be preferable to what will be coming with an Obama victory and Democratic gains in Congress.
