Nevada isn't a sure bet for Obama

even Democrats complain that the president hasn't done enough to fix the economy.

"We just tell them, 'Well, he's tried, but he can't get past the filibusters and the Republicans.'" At that point, she said, people sometimes hang up.

Blaming the Republicans is just wrong.  Here's an example of why jobs are not really Obama's main priority:
And calls for investment in infrastructure may lead people to recall his chuckling admission that there are no shovel-ready projects, thanks to regulatory and legal roadblocks. 

More excuse making.  But if he really had jobs as a priority, he would have waived those regulations and legal roadblocks like he did with respect to welfare reform of the nineties.   He is willing to make war on America with his imperial decrees, but not one of those decrees are helping people find jobs.  Washington is broken, alright, but he's the main reason that it is.  Blaming others for his own failure will not solve any problems.  When he goes, that will enable some real problem solving to take place.
