Obama Hits Campaign Trail to Push Tax Hikes

Why can't he stay in town and simply sit down with lawmakers and lead the country? Instead he is constantly fleeing Washington in order to make photo ops.

The president's visit to a small business in Hatfield, Pa., that makes parts for a construction toy company will cap a week of public outreach as the White House and congressional leaders seek a way to avoid the tax increases and spending cuts scheduled to take effect Jan. 1.

He already won Pennsylvania's electoral college votes. Why does he have to hang out at some construction toy company? Obama wants tax hikes so just make them palatable to the GOP and solve the problem. If they don't want hikes on people making more than $250K then push for people making more than $500K or a $1 million something. In other words sit down and lead and not rush off to mug for the cameras.
