Personal experience is a much more vivid and real thing to people than some abstract numbers and figures, thus we're more apt to believe it. That's why politicians always have some little story about "Mary in Virginia" or "Jim in Vermont" rather than charts and graphs (unless it's Ross Perot.)
So I'm not sure how much this report's going to sway someone.

It all depends on their views a person may be out of work and still have a differing view on the situation it is no guarantee that they will lean one way or the other depending on their convictions.I have a friend that hands out canned and dry goods to needy people he says that you'll often hear them sit and argue Romney vs Obama.
To think that a given candidate is going to suddenly make things better for
you is having false hope.To even think that things will get better for you in months is as well.You never know when things will turn in your favor for the better and it might have nothing to do with who is in office.It will most likely have everything to do with being at the right place at the right time and some good fortune every penny land on heads some times.If you truly believe in sudden fixes I have some good Kool-aid for you to drink.
