If I were Barack Obama, I would make use of that 60+ favorability rating to do a little leaning on democrats like the spineless senate majority leader who have decided to stray from the fold.
Obama should point out to Reid that he is looking pretty anemic in the polls. If Reid does not want to support the president's agenda, then President Obama should not waste any of his wattage on Reid's constituents trying to convince them to re-elect the unsupportive idiot.
Anyone who does not support the president's agenda should not get any support come re-election. And who is a bigger draw? Harry Reid or President Obama? Max Baucus or President Obama? Evan Bayh or President Obama?
Obama is better off taking a chance on supporting their democratic primary opponents than going with what these democrats he knows, who would rather throw their lot in with the republicans.
Let Dick Cheney go campaign and raise money for Harry Reid.
