Consumer Confidence Falls to 7 Month Low

Our economy is not in good shape. At least not according to consumers. Consumer confidence is at a seven year month low. What's behind the drop?

  • soaring energy prices
  • relentless violence in Iraq
  • the increasingly bitter end of the presidential election campaign
  • record oil prices
  • steep health care costs
  • concerns over job growth

Hope this makes it into a Kerry campaign ad.

[Ed. edited from "seven year" to "seven month." Thanks to the commenters who pointed out the error and to Skippy who also wrote on the story.]
