A top Democratic Senate candidate says the president should probably stick to his day job in Washington instead of coming to campaign for her.

Appearing on Andrea Mitchell Reports, Democrat Sen. Jeanne Shaheen said that she's "delighted" to have the support of Hillary and Bill Clinton, who are making separate trips to boost her in the tight contest with Republican Scott Brown.

But when host Andrea Mitchell asked if having President Barack Obama campaign for her would "not be helpful," Shaheen said she’s happy with the commander-in-chief keeping his focus off the campaign trail.

"Well, the president's dealing with a lot of crises in the world right now, and I think it's important for him to continue to address what's happening with ISIS, to continue to address the Ebola scare," she said. "And so I expect him to be in Washington."

I imagine the toilet in the Oval Office could use a good cleaning. Right Jeannie?

Hes dealing with Isis and Ebola. So hes better off in DC.

She says this as Obama is in Hollywood, California fundraising at home of Gwenyth Paltrow.

You can’t make it up.

She can grouse and opine all she wants but she is joined at the hip with King OBOLA and ALL of his damnable, destructive, anti-American policies which she has supported and helped to implement.

OBOLA Death Care would not be law if not for Jean Shaheen. King OBOLA'S "Chickens have come home to roost" and they are laying rotten Obama eggs and Obama excrement all over Jean Shaheen. Too bad, so sad... NOT!

So.....let me get this straight; Obama is toxic for this Democrat’s reelection, but Bill & Hillary are golden?

I don’t get it.

But campaigning is all 0bama knows how to do.

Another democRAT shows off her racism.

The country prospered while Clinton was squandering the Peace Dividend that Reagan had earned.

Worth repeating.

Hes dealing with Isis and Ebola. So hes better off in DC.

She says this as Obama is in Hollywood, California fundraising at home of Gwenyth Paltrow.

You can’t make it up.
