Obama Switches Gears, Confronting Ebola Head On WASHINGTON — Oct 19, 2014, 9:05 AM ET By JIM KUHNHENN Associated Press

President Barack Obama delayed acting on immigration and an attorney general nomination this fall to dodge the politics of the midterm campaign season. But there was one topic he could not push aside — Ebola.

The past week's jarring Ebola developments have put a spotlight on the president's management skills just as he was earning praise for acting militarily against Islamic militants.

“President Barack Obama is shifting into campaign mode for the first time this year. “

The fact that Obama has to go to Maryland is an indication on how bad things are for the rats.

Leftist AP is full of crap.

(can I say that? Sorry mods...)

Obama has been in campaign mode for every day of his entire presidency.

It is all he does. For crying out loud.

“Campaign mode” = The entire Obama presidency.

The combat communists machine will now attempt to crush the Republicans. And with so many illegal voters and the ignorant free loading Democrats this will be one hell of a fight. I fear it will be too close since communists Democrats will make huge lying ads and flood the MSM.

Brown completely failed in his only assigned task - get the State 0Care site up and running.

He's a dismal failure.

(”for the first time this year”)

The Dim candidates are happy about this. Only two weeks to the elections, he can’t damage them too much.

FLASHBACK

“The president, like most professionals, has the capability to deal with more than one priority at a time… He’s got his own airplane, he’s got dedicated phone lines, he has senior advisors who will be accompanying him every step of the way.”

Josh Earnest

Obama plans to attend a Sunday afternoon rally for Anthony Brown in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Brown is Maryland's lieutenant governor and the Democratic candidate for governor.

Post poll: Anthony Brown leads Larry Hogan by 9 points in Maryland governor’s race

What a gutsy move for Obamebola...campaigning for a Demon Rat with a 9 point lead.

Asspress liars have no shame about the whoppers they routinely tell. They are the party line for party members. Anyone who believes anything they write is a brainwashed fool.
