I think "honesty on the economy" references them getting i to office and then find "oh my, we've crunched the numbers and found out there's no money left on the national credit card so now there goes all our campaign promises that would actually help people". A subset of liberals loves this kind of "tough decisions adults in the room"-act.

Never mind that they had over a decade to come up with economic plans as a shadow cabinet, history began after election day after all.
