"Obama’s race to save the Rust Belt."

A headline at Salon that has us wondering if maybe, just maybe, Obama's race is the cure-all for everything.

But, if someone's rejuvenating the area, it's people like Scott Walker and John Kasich.; 4/21/12, 3:45 PM

It's corruption plus stupidity, instead of just stupidity.

A two-fer that's not often available outside of Chicago.; 4/21/12, 4:45 PM

All I hear is "Blah blah blah."

I do trust the hot mike comment to his Russian handler though... "just give me a little more time, and then I'll be very flexible." Traitorous scum is the nicest term I can use for our so called president.; 4/21/12, 5:04 PM
mesquito said...: So a Party that can't manage the mundane and routine like submitting a budget is going to do "industrial policy."

Right.; 4/21/12, 5:28 PM

Martin L. Shoemaker said...: They got the title almost correct. It's "Obama's Race to Save the Rust Belt Electoral Votes".; 4/21/12, 6:53 PM

What Obama said is true of all second term presidents. Since they can't run again, they have more wiggle room to maneuver through. Nothing at all "traitorous" about it.; 4/21/12, 7:01 PM

except he was saying it to a russian that was pressing him about defense matters. that's pretty traitorous in my book, and willful obfuscation on yours.; 4/21/12, 8:07 PM
