Reporting from Kennett Square, Pa. - As he is quick to point out, President Obama is presiding over two wars, a sour economy and an epic fight to rework the nation's healthcare system.
Now tack on a trio of state and local political races. With an off-year election fast approaching, Obama is stepping up his commitment to Democratic candidates in hopes that an infusion of campaign charisma might pump up turnout.
What the party is finding, though, is that the electricity of 2008 is tough to recapture.

They could successfully blame it on Bush for another 8 years if they need too. Half the country is brain-dead.
I’m sure 0b0z0 will get a win in New Jersey, because Dagnabbit is probably siphoning off likely Republican votes.
Chris is leading, Daggett will fade and Corzine is hated. Chris wins.
“They could successfully blame it on Bush for another 8 years if they need too.”
Sorry, polls say this doesn’t work any longer. Go Chris Go!!!
Yeah. It’s in the playbook. They ran against Hoover for 50 years, Nixon for a generation and Reagan for a decade.
It’s working “progressively” less well each time...
Seems the "electricity" might be more akin to the electroshock treatment of 2008, with buyers remorse added in.
Maybe the best way to get voters to vote against DemoRats is to let those DemoRats rule the voters unmoderated for a while.
Sweet, Virginia.
MEANWHILE...I was at the Arizona Federation of Republican Woman convention this weekend in Tucson and we are JAZZED UP!!! We have record numbers of people joining up and we are ready to take back Congress with CONSERVATIVE candidates.
The loneliest table was the McCain table. I actually had a nasty “discussion” with the McCain people until his guy actually told me he was, himself, a lot more conservative than McCain. McCain called during the banquet to talk to us and it was completely uninspired. He just generates NO excitement. Next week Chris Simcox is coming to town..he might be the guy we’re waiting for to beat McCain. I’ll keep you guys posted.
I’m sure that there was a misquote. It’s not “Obama hangover,” it’s “Obama stench”.
LA Times propaganda pleading with its mind-numbed robot readership to get more active in 2009 supporting The Party.
I was watching one of the Sunday shows today, with Sen. Kyl and Schumer. The topic of Cheney's remarks about "dithering" came up.
Schumer immediately blamed today's problems in Afghanistan on "seven-and-a-half years of neglect by the Bush Administration's focusing on Iraq."
Kyl just sat there and took Schumer's crap.
If I would have been there I would have retorted immediately with something like "Sen. Schumer, would you have preferred that Saddam Hussein remained in power in Iraq, with his sons Uday and Kusay raping young schoolgirls, torturing their mothers and killing their fathers? Would you have preferred such a world?"
I would also have pointed out that Bush received a vote of support from Congress in which most Democrats agreed to his efforts in Iraq, before the Democrats decided to make all efforts to have us lose the war there.
Again, what the hell is wrong with Republicans? I wanted to reach into the TV, grab Kyl's neck and shake him silly.
L A Times whining “but, but we all have to help Barack.” Nauseating.
Go Bob Go!!!
Ignored by the mindless is the most important:
The biggest spending orgy of present and future public money in the history of the world.
Probably the longest lasting and critical damage to the Republic in history.
Few have ever wondered what would happen in the insane scenario: the mentally unbalanced do-gooders who believe in throwing money at every social problem. What would happen if they were ever unrestrained?
Get the popcorn. It's happening.
Without Steve Lonigan in the race, it doesn't matter who wins. None of the three have the stones to do what is needed.
People voted blindly in 2008 for David Axelrod’s focus grouped Manchurian candidate, just like Massachusett’s voters did in 2006 (Deval Patrick), and now almost everyone realizes that neither one of these idiots has any clue how to govern effectively. What a joke.
I actually had to take an extra moment to find Daggett's name. I wouldn't be surprised if he loses votes because of this, to Christie's benefit.
Christie will need every benefit he can get to defeat Corzine, to offset the voter fraud in the inner cities.
We need to keep the pressure on, not become complacent and not lose our momentum. Go Bob. Take our state back from the Liberal Squish Heads.
