JOHN WIXTED NOTES THAT THE FEDERAL DEFICIT IS PLUMMETING, and stresses a lot of other good economic news:

Let’s see, GDP growth is strong, productivity is way up, unemployment is low, family incomes are rising, inflation is down, the stock market is up, and the federal deficit is down. Yet polls show that we are about to put more Democrats into both the House and the Senate.

So much for “it’s the economy, stupid!” Wixted has lots of interesting charts and data.
