The 2012 election should be a referendum on stimulus

A long headline for a short blog post.
With a report from the Fed that the wealth of American households has declined 40 percent between 2007 and 2010, there's no question that the electorate is ready for some big change.
The question is do we do the right thing and the dumb thing.
That's what this election should be about. You decide whether austerity or stimulus is the right answer. And vote accordingly.
However for that to work, one of the candidates should offer to do the stimulus. Otherwise I don't see why anyone should care if it's Romney or Obama. Both are controlled by the Tea Party and bankers. Both want to starve the economy to supposedly boot up a recovery. They're not offering a choice.
