Obama Pleads Ohioans to Repeat the Magic of '08, but is the Magic Gone?

President Obama and his wife were doing their first day of campaigning together since the 2008 election cycle here in Ohio this last Monday and he was working hard to remind Ohioans just why they voted for him in the last presidential election. He remarked about the economy and how his policies for the last two years helped stave off a Second Great Depression. This article is showing how despite the fact that it isn’t only thirty seconds that what he said was basically an attack ad. He used issues that worry people to make sure that his policies look good and that he strikes the fear of god into anyone who wants to vote Republican. The question is that is it too late Governor Strickland is having issues in his race, there are four Democratic Reps in fear of losing his race, and Fisher’s Senatorial race vs Portman is being seen as a loss already. President Obama realizes he and the Democrats are in trouble and he’s pulling out all the stops, but the entirety of his visit and his presidency can be summed up in a pair of quotes from a Cleveland fundraiser between himself and the first lady. Mrs. Obama introduced the President as "the love of my life... and more importantly, the president of the United States." To which Pres. Obama said "It is not true that more importantly I am the president of the United States," the president replied when he got the microphone. "More importantly, I am Michelle Obama's husband, and Malia and Sasha's father, and Michelle has put up with me through thick and thin, and I'm grateful for her each and every day." We’re not quite sure what we’re getting from him nowadays and it seems he and his wife can’t even agree on it. So if that’s our President how do we trust the Democrats in Ohio?

  1. Obama cannot be feeling too much love from anyone right now. I found an article about how numerous of democratic leaders are distancing themselves from him. If Obama is in such a bad light why is Obama even on this campaign trail? Obama had denied showing up and supporting many other campaigns why come to Ohio where the race seems already lost? Michelle Obama maybe had a mix up of words however I feel like Obama really did too much to counter act her statement. Obama is a family man we know this and don’t need his constant reminder.
