U.S. private sector creates 230,000 jobs in October: ADP



EW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. private employers added 230,000 jobs in October, the most since June and exceeding economists' expectations as mid-sized businesses added the most workers in more than seven years, a report by a payrolls processor showed on Wednesday.



Economists surveyed by Reuters had forecast the ADP National Employment Report would show a gain of 220,000 jobs.
September's private payrolls were revised up to 225,000 from the previously reported 213,000.

i looked at it in amazement then i thought for a bit and was not that amazed. liberals are not as passionate ar republicans and are therefore more fickle ... depending on the cause du jour.

Democrats are crazy. How can they not campaign on Jobs and better economy?? I listened their ads and none of them did that. The abandon Obama and Healthcare. They pretty much campaign on nothing. They failed to list any accomplishment over their reign, so what did they expect????

... and that is why they deserved to lose. The GOP had to stop talking about the deficit, the economy is growing, unemployment is below 6%, etc .... and the idiots all tried to distant themselves from all of that.

Democrats are still not convinced that the country views Obama's policies as "good" things, hence they ran away from them. You are exactly right, they campaigned on nothing. One of them didn't even want to admit that she voted for Obama. Spineless.

I still think they would have lost the Senate though, it just wasn't a good hand for Democrats this year with the seats that were up for re-election and the unpopularity of Obama.

With the way the economy is improving it should reach more of the suffering working class in the next year or two. Hilary should reap the benefits of that.

[Assasin]

I know here in Georgia which is a Red state, the poll was was close until the last few days. If their strategy was right they could have maybe pulled it off. They may have one but they didn't give themselves much of a chance.

I think Obama numbers maybe bad because of ISIS and few other things but I am not convinced it is bad on domestic policies. Democrats didn't use improving economy, oil price, Healthcare, Immigration or any of their known topics.

The Democrats will win by a landslide in the next general elections. The Democratic party again has proven to be very lazy when it comes to putting in the same amount of work for the mid-terms as they do for general elections. It is bewildering how for the second time they've abandoned the president. They have so many positives to campaign on.

[Assasin]

The only problem is incumbents usually have an advantage and democrats throw that away.

Let us see how Hillary work out because god forbid she don't run, are there Democrats out there to compete? Are any other putting themselves out there?

Republicans policies equal run up and then Recession

[Hortical]

All politics is local.... voted for a republican for Gov, and split my votes
for other offices between Dems & Repubs.

The Dems put up a lot of weak candidates who lacked a spine, and ran
away from Obama. The economy is actually doing very well, foreign policy
no so well. They failed to campaign on their positives.

Nuh badda thing that people going "gaga" over another Clinton, named Hillary !! She will get votes, only because people are dire hard Dems!

[Hortical]

Doubt Dems will win the next election and it depends on the candidate.
If Hilary runs against Rand Paul, I may just vote for him.
Tired of the Clintons & their baggage!!!

[Assasin]

look at the alternatives, Jeb Bush leading the pack on the other side.

[Islandman]

Don't let regional elections fool you Hortical , the Presidential electoral map is stacked in favor of the Dems and will continue to be so as long as the Republicans continue with their backward mentality of dismissing the demographic trends.

What is wrong about the foreign policy?

[Hortical]

I doubt that. It all depends on the candidate.
A weak Dem candidate can lose to a Rep in a deep blue state.
