As if the unappetizing buffet of presidential candidates isn’t troublesome enough for the Democratic Party, along came an unexpectedly strong November jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
In November, the economy created 266,000 jobs, aided in part by returning GM workers, a total that easily outstripped Wall Street’s 183,000 projections. Some doomsayers wrongly predicted that the labor market was “finally starting to crack.” Not only was November robust, the September and October jobs were revised upward, adding 41,000 to the payroll totals.
