Michelle Obama Attends Beyonce Concert
7 Weird Ways To Bug-Proof Your Picnic
Few things will determine the success of President Obama's agenda in his final two years in office more than which party runs the House and Senate after November's election.
If Democrats can hold onto both the House and Senate, Obama has a good chance to see major portions of his agenda get a fair hearing and possible passage.
If Republicans take either the House or Senate, as some political forecasters have predicted, Obama can look forward to two years of Congressional logjams and fussing just to get minor initiatives on the drawing board.
Maybe those high stakes are why Obama is trying to build voter enthusiasm at fundraisers around the country with several high-profile events scheduled around the country in the three weeks until Election Day.
And Obama isn't the only Democrat on the road raising money and rallying party loyalists. First Lady Michelle Obama is scheduled to visit several political rallies and former President Bill Clinton has been criss-crossing the country on behalf of Democratic candidates.
If Democrats lose the House, no one will be able to hold Obama responsible for the defeat.

Democratic congressional candidates want Obama to STAY AWAY from them. Obama lowers their poll numbers even further!
Congress is going Republican, and the best part about it is that then they will INVESTIGATE Obama for his frauds and illegal actions, many of which are impeachable! :)

This is really sad for our country. If the President will be hurdled in every little situation, he will never be able to get anything done---for the people. Everything is all Dems and Rep, while our country goes to hell. The politicians could care less about us, they just want to be in control--forget the people. So far, if you were listening to the presidential campaigns, President Obama has accomplished a large number of things that he had said that he would if elected. We'll always have different opinions and voices, but there has to be some kind of way for us to work together and let this country move forward. This dem and rep mess has got to stop! We don't have time for it. Can't we all just get along?? I guess not, it's too easy and wayyyyy cheaper.
