Last week, President Obama stopped in Columbus, Ohio for a town-hall style meeting with a few dozen residents of Columbus. On Monday, Ohio residents will get another shot to see an Obama administration official. This time: Vice President Joe Biden.

Biden is scheduled to travel to both Indiana and Ohio on Monday. In Indiana, he will deliver remarks addressing the troop drawdown in Iraq at the 111th annual Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in Indianapolis before continuing on to Toledo, Ohio where he will stop at a Chrysler plant.

In Ohio, Gov. Ted Strickland, Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown and Rep. Marcy Kaptur, all Democrats, will join Biden.

The Vice President is expected to emphasize the role of the administration’s investments in GM and Chrysler as well as Cash for Clunkers and the Recovery Act, and will make the case that the administration's actions have not only strengthened the auto industry, but have stimulated economic activity and job growth across the country.

1. Is that it? Everything else is getting worse, but 'we saved the auto industry'.

Time to get these people back to Washington. The auto industry is one of many things that need to be saved.

2. I am unable to express myself, I am truly glad some are seeing a little relief!

Ok here comes a little inspiration, Its like a child comes home from school with a graded test, out of 25 questions 15 were unanswered, 8 were incorrect, and 2 were correct.

His parents are upset with the grade and the child says "But I got TWO Correct, ya gotta give me credit for my accomplishment, I got two right"

How to admonish the child and stress the minimum goal was a passing grade, while striving for a perfect score is the ultimate goal.

Net Net, failed the test!
