I will say it again.

Obama could have crushed the right wing with one simple visit to his neighbors to the north of Chicago and declared, You folks had my back in 08, now I have your back today. Could have been so simple. But no, to much political calculating seems to make a simple decision so confusing.

No, it is wise the President stays away from Wisconsin. For him to get involved would make it all about him.

For him to get involved would be the height of folly.
