White House Debates Fight on Economy (winning second term w/ mandate best thing)...."Dan Pfeiffer, the White House director of communications, said that there was no internal debate. “The president’s first priority is to work with Republicans and Democrats to grow the economy, create jobs and reduce the deficit, but if the Republican House continues its ‘my way or the highway’ approach, he will make sure the public knows who is standing in the way and why.”

The issue is being framed by the 2012 election. Administration officials, frustrated by the intransigence of House Republicans, have increasingly concluded that the best thing Mr. Obama can do for the economy may be winning a second term, with a mandate to advance his ideas on deficit reduction, entitlement changes, housing policy and other issues."........

Obama’s already started to blame the economy on the republican controlled House.

The BEST argument to bring to the American people is to remind them that until january or this year, Obama and the democrats had a super majority and did nothing with it.

Another reminder: Since 2006 they controlled Congress until they lost the House and republicans took over THIS year.

This needs to be one of our mantras

Uuuuhhh, seems like I remember very early in his Reign, Dear Leader proclaimed: “I won....the rest of you get to the back of the bus...” or something to that effect...now it’s someone else’s fault...that is a bunch of stable hockey!

The RATs oppose every bit of that, always have and will continue to do so.

if the Republican House continues its ‘my way or the highway’ approach, he will make sure the public knows who is standing in the way and why.”

Nice implied threat there. It appears "the public" already knows who to blame.
