ADP Reports 157,000 Jobs Lost in October (2008)
Clearly, President Obama's policies are good for small business!
Also, while it's bad to lose even one job, hiring in October 2012 far outpaced layoffs: Despite the loss of 8k manufacturing jobs, jobs were UP in every other sector ADP measures.
Once again, bad news for Republicans is good news for Americans!!
