Obama will not be spreading the wealth around! no campaign cash for congressional Democrats
It appears that President Obama is not about to "spread the wealth around" to re-election seeking Democrats. Guess the cash is not rolling in or Obama is fearful he will need every dollar to defeat the Republican nominee following his dismal record. President Obama's re-election campaign has told Democratic congressional counterparts it will not be transferring money to them before the November elections. "Our top priority and focus is to secure the electoral votes necessary to re-elect the president," said a statement from Obama campaign manager Jim Messina. "There's no doubt that Democratic campaigns face a challenging new political landscape with special interests giving unlimited amounts to super PACs," Messina said. "We're committed to doing everything we can to elect a [...]

Remarks by President Obama at two DNC Events September 15, 2011
REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT AT A DNC EVENT Private Residence Washington, D.C. 6:44 P.M. EDT THE PRESIDENT: Thank you, Silvia. (Applause.) I’m going to be quick, because I want to make this more of a dialogue than a monologue. And a lot of you guys are old friends; been supporting us for a long time. And we’re going to be seeing each other a lot out on the campaign trail as you guys are bringing in folks from various cities, getting them involved. So let me just say this: Last week, obviously, I presented to Congress the American Jobs Act. And what I tried to underscore in that speech is the urgency for action in Washington.

Leaked DNC Memo Paint GOP field as Tea Party flaks pushing tired Divisive policies that elevate the rich – Read it here
From: Melanie Roussell, DNC National Press Secretary To: Interested Parties Date: August 11, 2011 Re: What to Expect from Tonight's Republican Debate With 179 days left before the Iowa Caucuses, the American people are increasingly turned off by what they are learning about the Republican presidential candidates and who they fight for. Instead of new ideas that give the middle class more security, we hear the same old policies that carve out special benefits for the special interests. Instead of a new approach that puts party aside and America first, we hear a rigid and extreme ideology that asks working and middle class families to carry the entire load. This is why the GOP is seeing its support erode significantly. In two recent polls the GOP is seeing some of the highest negative [...]
DNC Event: Wall Street Fat Cats invited to White House for Obama Access
While publicly Obama makes Wall Street executives out to be the enemy. In private, well tat is a different story, he has the DNC plan and event at the White House for a couple o Dozen Wall Street executives to have a chat session with Obama. While this event occurred before Obama announced his plans for re-election, he knows he needs nearly 750 million dollars to mount a run in 2012. The only thing that didn't happen at this meeting was they didn't pass the collection plate: The most open and honest administration in history. Remember those words? We heard about transparency, ethics, and a host of other terms used by Barack Obama to paint a picture that his administration was better than the rest. Funny how things change. From closed door meetings on health care, we now get [...]
Former DNC Chief Howard Dean says if Democrats do nothing, Sarah Palin could be President
The left is starting to worry that it is a statistical improbably that an incumbent president can't win re-election when the unemployment rate is above 7 percent. Even Howard Dean sees Sarah Palin as a potential contender against Barack Obama in 2012. The economic mood in America is not getting better and the Left has their play book out that attacks the right rather than touting their accomplishments. The President is touting the Auto industries comeback and his getting Bin Laden. The problem with both is that it the worst automobiles made today are coming out of bailed out automakers and Bin Laden was gotten by George W, Bush Policies. The Democrats have no plan to sure up medicare, in fact they stole 500 billion for their Failed Health Care plan. They have no [...]
