I think the talking heads are making it seem worse so we more readily jump into the abyss.
A month or so ago there was talk of things improving the second half of '09 and now they're talking into 2010.

Granted, it's all a crap shoot and nobody knows what's going to really happen, but that's a big difference if you're trying to create policy to help people.
