October jobs report

Have the jobs statistics crossed the Rubicon? Or is it just a conspiracy to help President Obama's reelection? The statistics are compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) which released its monthly report today. Unemployment dropped to 7.8% the lowest level since 2008. Although the job growth was modest (114,000) the numbers for prior months were also raised evidencing an incrementally improving jobs picture. Many on the right now claim the the BLS stats are cooked. And according to candidate Romney so is Big Bird.
