Most of us here already knew this but look where this advice is coming from... (h/t Hot Air)
The advice from Democratic consultants and strategists is almost unanimous: Run away from the president, and fast. A prominent Democratic pollster is circulating a survey that shows George W. Bush is 6 points more popular than President Obama in "Frontline" districts -- seats held by Democrats that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee sees as most vulnerable to Republican takeover. That Bush is more popular than Obama in Democratic-held seats is cause for outright fear.~~~“He is a walking radioactive disaster,” one senior Democratic operative said of the president. But any effort to seriously distance oneself from Obama is dangerous for an incumbent; go too hard against the president and voters think the candidate is faking it.
What will those Democrats who fell all over themselves lapping up the ch-ch-change message do now? Are they going to just walk away from the one?

Barack Obama is loved by all, and you should invoke his name and legacy at every opportunity on the campaign trail.
You are guaranteed a win if you do.
Guaranteed.
Balderdash! Not only should Dems invite him in for multiple joint appearances, but Roman (or was it Grecian?) pillars are always good, a big echoey PA that allows him to speak with the Voice of God (Allah?) and ideally, a late afternoon outdoor venue that faces west (to dispel those muslim myths, you know, but which also makes a teleprompter very hard to read).
And it would be nice if they could arrange a “date night” for the Obamas, and a chance for Michelle to teach the locals how to cook and dress for success.
And just to show his popularity, schedule it the same time Sarah Palin is speaking across town.
Not good enough to walk away from him. Gotta walk away from his ideology too.
Walk away from Obama?.....Very funny!...You ass clowns can rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic all you want....You all the berg in November!!!!
They’d shove the anti-president under the bus in a minute, and then walk away.
Zer0 makes me miss Dick Cheney for cripes sake
I guess the threat of Rahm Emanuel poking you naked in the showers was not enough of a deterrent
Priceless
