Because rich people own the businesses that employ most of the middle-class people in this country. No rich people=no jobs.
The reason there is so much outsourcing is because we have the 2nd-highest business tax rate on the planet. McCain wanted to lower those tax rates to encourage businesses to come back to the US, and prevent even more companies from leaving. But, that's obviously not happening now.

Another positive is that our days of hearing the constant Bush bashing is coming to an end. But perhaps not, every mistake Obama makes he'll blame on Bush I'm sure. "Well, uh, this economy thing is still bad here in 2012, but, uh, you see, Bush left it this way and I had a lot to clean up. Uh, it's still bad and I need four more years to fix it, and maybe four more after that, becasue Bush sure made a mess!"
Yes, that's a huge positive. If there's reason to whine, they have only themselves to blame (but they'll still probably try to blame a republican from several administrations back - lol).
