"We're the beneficiary of a lot of political real estate after 2006 and 2008 that haven't been held by Democrats for a long period of time," Gibbs said, seeming to hedge his bet.

And most dems running away from Obama. Yeah, it’s about local issues. I hate Gibbs almost as much as I hate Obama.

Isn’t psychosis defined mistaking what you want to believe for reality?

Would someone please call a Medic to rescue Mr. Gibbs from his public display of Psychosis.

This is Gibbs throwing in the towel.

In one brief statement he backhandedly admits that Obama is despised and that there is no way to spin Obama’s performance to improve its popularity.

The Gibmeister must be channeling Tip O'Neil: "All politics is local".

It's true. If you or your neighbor is out of work, it's local.
If you lose or have your health insurance double, it's local.
If your business is drowning in regulation, it's local.

And when you go down to your local precinct to vote your Democrat Congressman out, it's local.

I think Gibbs was instructed by his boss to make this comment.

Nice try, Fat Boy, but America knows the truth (except for those few remaining Kool-Ade drinking loonies).

I saw that presser on TV.

Did anyone else see Gibbs passing out his resume to the reporters? Guess a guy can’t start networking too early in this terrible Bush economy.

This tells me that they know huge losses are coming, he’s now in protect Obama mode and trying to set the stage for spinning that the loss in November is not a rejection of Obama.
