WASHINGTON -- Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell said Sunday that Republican governors deserve credit for the improving economy.
"I'm glad the economy is starting to recover, but I think it's because of what Republican governors are doing in their states, not because of the president," McDonnell said on CNN's "State of the Union with Candy Crowley."
McDonnell did not elaborate on what the governors have done. But he said Republican governors are in charge of more states with positive economic conditions.

"Seven out of the 10 states that have had the biggest drop in unemployment are states run by Republican governors."
