POTUS to Pelosi: more "campaign events in the works..."
Dems running from Obama ....... not.

Democrats Want Obama Campaigning

Democratic congressional leaders used a White House strategy session to push President Obama "to be more aggressive in helping them campaign in the final weeks before November's elections," CNN reports.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "told the president that congressional Democrats want to see more of the kind of campaign rally and rhetoric he displayed this week in Wisconsin. They said they especially want him to continue to make the case -- and the contrast with Republicans -- on jobs and the economy."

"The president said he would, and signaled that there are other campaign events in the works beyond the handful that have already been announced."

1. What about the meme that Obama was not wanted at rallys?
Did the "left" media lie again. :sarcasm:

They worked.

And in combination with Rahmn's departure and aggressive anti-Rethug advertising, they can work again.

4. Remember
Obama Is more popular now than Reagan was In 1982(This may be closer to the 2010 environment than 1994) and Clinton was In 1994.
Every doom and gloom poll Is likely voters,and the pollsters assume Democrats are going to have low turnout.Example Is WI.Feingold
Is down among likely voters but tied among registered voters.

Obama Is a asset In trying to get Democrats out to vote.

Remember the case of 1998.Because of Clinton's Scandal it was thought Democrats would do bad.In the end Democrats pick up 5 House seats
and most competitive senate races broke In Democrats favor.Boxer,Feingold and Reid all heavily targeted by Republicans won.Schumer
and John Edwards were elected to the senate over anti Clinton Republicans and It shocked pundits that Democrats did well.It forced
Gingrich out of congress and Livingston the original choice to replace Gingrich as Speaker was forced out when it came out he had
an affair when they were trying to railroad Clinton on lying about receiving oral sex(which Is all they could ever prove and Gingrich we now know was doing the same as Clinton was talk about a Hypocrite)
