The boring economy seems to be making this presidential race even more exciting. And uncertain.
The economy has reliably been one of the most important factors influencing a presidential election. A strong economy helps to keep the party in power in power. A weak economy tends to cause voters to want to change the residents of the White House.
But right now, the economy could be best described as moderately, perhaps deceptively, successful. CONT.
