Hot Air<\/a> posted an article yesterday about an amazing statement by President Obama. President Obama’s<\/a> current approval rating<\/a> according to Real Clear Politics<\/a> is averaging about 41.4 percent this month (somehow the mainstream media<\/a> is not reporting this fact). Keeping that in mind, consider this quote from a recent speech:<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, look, here\u2019s the bottom line,\u201d said Obama, \u201cWe\u2019ve got a tough map. A lot of the states that are contested this time are states that I didn\u2019t win. And so some of the candidates there, you know, it is difficult for them to have me in the state because the Republicans will use that to try to fan Republican turn-out. The bottom line is, though, these are all folks who vote with me. They have supported my agenda in Congress<\/a>. They are on the right side<\/a> of minimum wage. They are on the right side of fair pay. They are on the right side of rebuilding our infrastructure. They\u2019re on the right side of early childhood education<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSo, this isn\u2019t about my feelings being hurt. These are folks who are strong allies and supporters of me. And I tell them, I said, you know what, you do what you need to win. I will be responsible for making sure that our voters turn up.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you were a Democrat candidate running for Congress, how would you feel about that statement?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
