Cillizza: “President Obama’s decision to make remarks…Friday morning on the economy was a seemingly obvious attempt to pivot away from his worst week, politically speaking, in months. It almost certainly won’t work, however, because Obama offered little new in terms of policy and adopted a largely presidential — rather than a political — approach to the questions reporters posed to him.”
AP: “The economy at risk, President Barack Obama accused Republicans on Friday of pursuing policies that would weaken the U.S. recovery. He simultaneously urged Europe’s leaders to prevent an overseas debt crisis from dragging down the rest of the world.”
