It’s a pretty simple calculation: We’re still here and now slowly recovering, so it would seem both the bailouts and stimulus worked.
It’s fairly ironic. Many railed against the stimulus, lost the vote, then claimed credit when it started flowing to their districts. Now they’ve got a vote *for* something that worked on their records and they have to rail against it.
Delicious, the irony is.
