President Obama Strike Back For The Working Class

Barack Obama's re-election campaign released on Thursday a new television ad that will air in Michigan and highlight the president's handling of and support for the auto bailout.

The 30-second commercial, called “Made in America,” seems designed for dual purposes: to protect the administration from attacks being leveled by the Republican candidates currently campaigning in Michigan, in advance of the primary there, and to needle Mitt Romney over his opposition to the bailout. The ad mentions Romney’s infamous New York Times op-ed “Let Detroit Go Bankrupt.”

Clint Eastwood Backtracks So Not To Get Put Out Good Old Boys Club.

After a day filled with chatter about the political implications of his "Halftime in America" Super Bowl commercial for Chrysler, acting legend Clint Eastwood moved to quell any speculation that he was making a pitch for President Obama's economic policy.

"l am certainly not politically affiliated with Mr. Obama. It was meant to be a message about job growth and the spirit of America," Eastwood, a libertarian and longtime Republican voter, said Monday evening on Fox News' "The O'Reilly Factor" about the ad, which features him extolling the virtues of a revitalized Detroit. Chrysler was one of the companies saved in President Obama's 2009 auto bailout, which Eastwood has publicly opposed. "I think all politicians will agree with it," he continued. "I thought the spirit was OK."
