Time to pivot to Congress. Voters need to know that Obama needs allies to enact his policies.

Of course, he can't look beyond Romney just yet, but Obama should begin to remind voters, "Voting for me isn't enough; If you want to see your government work, you have to vote out those Republicans who have refused to work with me."

Otherwise, we're in for 4 more years of debt ceiling fights and other such bullshit.

The easiest way to determine an Obama ally is to see how much the republicans etc. are spending to defeat him. They are spending the most to attack Progressive Sherrod Brown of Ohio. If you want to help Obama enact a more progressive agenda, send some money to Senator Sherod Brown in Ohio.
In 4 years, Ohio will be blue blue, and not a state of contention if we can win for Obama and Brown now.
Thanks for the reminder.

To give him a Dem congress so that thè people's business can be done

He had NOT done so as far as I know

I think this is a weakness of his campaign

We can say this on a website but it means little. POTUS saying it means everything
