Sample size IMO. It's very hard to establish clear cause-and-effect relationships with economics because time is so short. The 50s-70s prosperity could just as easily have been thanks to the comparatively worse effect of WWII on other countries than ours as it could have been thanks to the new deal. Same thing when X presidential candidate says Y incumbent's administration has crashed the economy. It is more likely that economies cycle of their own accord and do not respond to the mere whims of presidents.
