Obama makes case for voting Democratic in November
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – President Barack Obama implored heartland voters Thursday to believe his economic policies averted impending disaster, pushing a hard-to-swallow message at a time when unemployment still hovers near double-digit levels.
"What is absolutely clear is we're moving in the right direction, we're headed in the right direction," Obama said at an electric truck factory here, before a pair of campaign appearances for Senate Democratic candidates in Missouri and Nevada.
Obama jabbed Republicans who are threatening to swamp his party in the upcoming elections, though none by name. "There are some people who make the political calculation that it is better to say no to everything than lend a hand," he said.
After his tour and brief remarks at Smith Electric Vehicles, Obama headed out to raise money for Democratic Senate hopeful Robin Carnahan. Then he was flying to Nevada to campaign for embattled Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

6. I will vote only for Democrats because I have no choice. I am not very enthusiastic
about most of them, but I am not yet disgusted enough with the so called Democrats to let the USA go to the republicans....not yet...
