| Labor Department May Delay Jobs Report |
| 2012-10-29 |
| Probably reasonable but given Benghazigate, suboptimal optically The U.S. Labor Department on Monday said it hasn't made a decision yet on whether to delay Friday's October jobs report, the final reading on the labor market before next week's federal elections. A Labor official said the agency will assess the schedule for all its data releases this week when the "weather emergency" is over. Labor is scheduled to release the employment report on Friday, third quarter employment costs on Wednesday and weekly jobless claims on Thursday. |

| #4 You bet your arse they would, even before California turned in their numbers. The only possible answer is that the numbers stink to high hell. And I'm just waiting for the Admin to "delay" the election because of Sandy. Prolly take at least a year to get those areas cleaned up and ready for the election. |

| #2 Pretty much Besoeker. There is validity to the statement.... but it is awfully convenient for Obama. |
