Hmmm, here's something about THE MIRACLE of THE MIRACLE news hacks hadn't told us:
Not all of the improvements were McDonald's doing. A rebounding economy helped. So did the falling fortunes at archfoe Burger King.
The nation's No. 2 fast-food chain found itself facing similar struggles, but with a smaller infrastructure, store closings were more profound. Burger King has closed hundreds of stores, meaning many customers come to McDonald's by default.
This is starting to look like plain old-fashioned luck. Let's wait until next year.
