Obama was 'tone deaf' on economic message, Democratic strategist says

L.A. Times:

In the aftermath of their crushing defeats in Tuesday's election, Democratic elected officials and strategists have grown increasingly vocal in their complaints about President Obama.

 

The latest salvo comes from Stan Greenberg, the prominent Democratic pollster who conducts surveys for, and is politically close to, the House Democratic leadership.

 

On the central issue of the economy, Greenberg said, Obama was "out of touch" and "tone deaf" in his insistence on talking about a recovery that many voters don't feel.

 

Middle-class and working-class voters, whose support the Democrats need, "are living in a different economy than he's speaking of," Greenberg said in a briefing for reporters on an election day poll he had conducted.

 

"He isn't speaking to the main economic problem," Greenberg said, adding that the lack of an economic message directed at the anxieties of average families had contributed heavily to low turnout of Democratic voters.

Actually he is speaking-it's just that nobody wants to listen anymore.

I can't speak for the others, but I can't stand to hear him because I'm tired of being mocked and being lied to.
