After Labor Day tomorrow, the official “kickoff” to the mid-term elections begins. Except your mailbox to be flooded with political crap, every other ad on TV to be about politics and the media/Democrats desperately trying to convince everyone that they’re going to win back the House in November. The media is excited because Hussein Obama is going hit to campaign trail for far left communist Democrats. But not all of them want Obama campaigning for them. They must be racists or something.
Not all Democrats want Obama to campaign for them this fall |

Others, such as Sens. Jon Tester (Mont.) and Heidi Heitkamp (N.D.), want to keep the race locked on the battle between themselves and their state rivals, fearing a high-profile surrogate like Obama could distract from the strategy.
“We’re not going to use any surrogates. Surrogates are fine but we don’t need them. The race is myself and Matt Rosendale and that’s the way we want to keep it,” Tester told The Hill, referring to his GOP challenger.
Asked if she thought Obama might show up in North Dakota, Heitkamp said: “Nope, no.”
“He threatened to campaign against me once so I don’t think he’s coming out there,” she said.
While the former president remains extremely popular with the Democratic base, especially among African-American voters, Democrats fear his entrance into some battleground states could inadvertently rev up conservatives and pro-Trump voters.
