resident Barack Obama offered a new talking point to Senate Republicans on Monday — just two weeks away from Election Day.
Speaking on the Rev. Al Sharpton's radio show, Obama said the Democratic candidates who have been avoiding him are actually "strong allies who have supported my agenda." Many of these candidates are in conservative-leaning states where Obama's agenda is decisively unpopular.
"And so some of the candidates there — it is difficult for them to have me in the state because the Republicans will use that to try to fan Republican turnout," Obama said, according to The Hill. "The bottom line is though, these are all folks who vote with me, they have supported my agenda in Congress, they are on the right side of minimum wage, they are on the right side of fair pay, they are on the right side of rebuilding our infrastructure, they're on the right side of early childhood education."
Neutral political observers said the quote is a gift for Republicans running in tougher-than-expected races in these more conservative states. Senate Republicans need to net six seats to regain the majority in the chamber. To accomplish that, they must pick off Democrats in states like Louisiana, Alaska, North Carolina, and Arkansas.
"Christmas came early for Republicans in tough races," the research firm Potomac Research Group declared Tuesday morning.

Those issues are certainly not the more derisive of his agenda. The fact that he hates America is all the agenda I need.
Obama said the Democratic candidates who have been avoiding him are actually “strong allies who have supported my agenda.”
Death knell.
In his arrogance, Clown Prince nobola accidentally tells the truth.
Who knew that the October Surprise would be Obama speaking off the teleprompter!
That’s the problem with elitist leftists.
They get so used to their echo chamber, that they forget that the majority of people actually disagree with them.
Yep. Thanks bammy. I’m liking our chances of taking control of the Senate more and more. He just needs to keep pushing that agenda. He’s such a blinded, firm believer in his failed agenda he doesn’t understand a) why it has failed, b) why everyone isn’t enthusiastically on board with him. Guess he’s been reading and believing his own lapdog MSM accounts.
1. Presumably we will have elections.
2. It’s not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes. Expect 99% turnout in the right districts.
“strong allies who have supported my agenda.”
Not allies...rather accomplices!
Obama is trying his best to give the GOP the election. I wonder if they are going to take it?
> Obama said the Democratic candidates who have been avoiding him are actually “strong allies who have supported my agenda.”
Death knell.
And a total BS lie if I ever heard it. It’s becoming more and more obvious this guy is like one of those guys who runs his mouth and claims he’s a bada$$ ghetto ball player then gets schooled on the court by some young teenagers
This bungler is ending up being one of the worst politicians ever. Kind of an anti-Clinton.
Obama said the Democratic candidates who have been avoiding him are actually “strong allies who have supported my agenda.”
********
Death knell.
Boom!
The Democrats under Obama have systematically dismantled the wealth and power of the United States. Under Obama the economy has been ravaged, personal rights and freedoms usurped to the despotic government tasked with protecting those rights.
Either way they are complicit with the destruction of this once great nation. They will havve to wear the scarlet letter of traitor to the Republic forever.
Poll tested emotional Hot Buttons for Low-Info-Self-Loathing Progressives.
How can anyone be against “FAIR PAY” (whatever that means!), REBUILING OUR INFRASTRUCTURE (more shovel ready jobs!) and EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION (Republicans only want to eat your children).
Bottom line: More BigGov Boondoggle interventionism, but really intended to paint your opponent into a corner for opposing such feel good BS,
Why would they stop at 99%?
With same day registration they can exceed 100%
Why do folks here still think 0bola misspeaks?
Is it not conceivable to have such cheating infrastructure in place to have this confidence? They had such confidence in both 2008 and 12...for those “elections”.
Yes I am this cautious...this jaded.
I suspect 105% turnout in some districts...uprisings enough to declare martial law and liberal judges to declare those illegal aliens had a right to vote.
Even if Rs do win, some other martial law excuse like Ebola may ensue and winners won’t get seated.
His confidence is not immature mistakes...madness yes, but snowflake of planning and infrastructure from his cabal/commie posse.
Obama’s arrogance has unveiled his lack of concern with his cohorts.
I think he’s being very clever here. He’s looking to usher as many Democrats off the stage as possible. Then he can simply rule by fiat with a ‘better excuse’. No one will ever stop him, so he can go freakin nuts with the EOs.
EVERY (R) candidate should have an ad feast with this quote!...................
