With his presidency at a crossroads, President Obama will face the media Friday at his first press conference since the spring.
As an increasing number of political analysts predict that Republicans will win the House this fall, Obama on Friday will defend his economic policies and hope to fend off questions about his weakened political standing.
The key for Obama will be to stay on message -- vote Democrat or return to the policies of the George W. Bush administration -- as reporters try to get the president to make news.
Obama addressed some of the most burning questions by sitting down for a TV interview while traveling to Cleveland on Wednesday.
In an interview with George Stephanopolous for ABC's "Good Morning America" that aired Thursday, Obama was asked repeatedly about Republican criticisms of his economic policies and the coming debate over whether to extend Bush's tax cuts.
Obama refused to threaten a veto over the increasing likelihood that Congress will extend all of the tax cuts for a year or two, which would hand the GOP a victory.
The president also voiced confidence that his party will win the mid-term elections this fall, despite polls suggesting Republicans have a good chance of winning the House, and an outside chance of winning the Senate.

I would like to see one of them ask why we are loaning Mexico $2 BILLION so they can drill in the Gulf of Mexico while issuing a moratorium on drilling by US companies.
I just thought it was telling that he would list Bush’s non-attack on Islam as a thing he most admires.
I'm having this little fantasy where 0bambi walks into the room and instead of them playing "Hail to the Chief," they play "Who Let the Dogs Out?"
Nope but a big steaming pile of Bull Guacomole behing the podium.
I've seen simple, poorly written computer programs that can simulate human speech patterns better than this guy.
Obama says that the talks are beyond anyone's expectations. He is fully engaged. "Bring the parties together." Says he is taking a risk promoting these talks. Then he LIES about his administration giving unequivocal support to Israel. Gives himself an out if talks fail because it is up to the other parties to come up with a solution. He's making some comment about Iran and nukes, but it is senseless.
Little bit concerned here that Eid falls on 9/11.
