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.

Blaming GITMO not closing on politics.
Political rhetoric
I really, really like Barack because HE wanted to close GITMO sooner than now. Wow. What a guy! /s
must be why he talks so haltingly all the time..someone has to feed him what to say.
That is because he doesn’t possess the intellect required for a sense of humor.
[He is basically saying that 911 should from here on out should be about loving and tolerating Muslims. (eye roll) He jumped the shark!]
What a complete jerk. I didn’t even watch it and feel sick!
She asked a good question.

It is so sad that I can pretty much figure out what that stands for. lol.
What happens if the Muslims around the globe threaten violence if we try them?
So WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO TRIAL?
Yeappers, I bet Ann Compton and the rest of the reporters (excpet Fox News) were invited to a shindig with Obami and Chicago thungs......... He is really a disgrace to the office...
Got to take my dog to the vet, but will check in on the play by play later. FReepers rock! You guys are the only thing that gets me through this long national nightmare called Obama...lol!
I really hate that partisan bitch!
One of those snarky little newsreaders that disrupts the radio talk shows on those top of the hour "news" updates. She always sounds absolutely DISGUSTING.
article 3 courts? legalese.........who knows what he’s talking about?
Tom and Jerry are far more intelligent than this bozo.
Also because all humor as at least a small amount of truth in it. Barack 0bama has not a drop of truth in him.
Jeez oh Pete, he makes not one bit of sense talking about GITMO.
Obama says he has confidence in our justice system to hold the trials. Then he lies about saying that he said there are some circumstances where a military tribunal is appropriate. Then he says he saved money by closing Gitmo.
