2008 but he was the first democrat to do so since lindon johnson in 1964. so it is by no means a reliably blue state. but the obama campaign is helping to keep virginia in the blue column. they are doing so, they hope, by arguing that the president will look out for the pr of middle class wheel mitt romney cares more about helping out the real wael think. let s see what he had to say at his first stop in glenn oa virginia. he got rained on but let s hear what he had to say about mitt romney and republican fles congress. they will spend a lot of time talking, but if you cut through all the stuff, what they are really saying is tax cuts for the wealthy, roll back regulations. that s essentially their plan. we can t afford to go back to top down economics. we need somebody who believes in a middle out economic, a bottom-up economics. somebody who will fight for you. so there you have it, fred. and i should mention that this sm of this language may sound familiar. it is a lot
remember that, tied to the train track, helpless, her only hope is that she s rescued before she is flattened, destroyed, ripped to bits, like a penny on the train track. makes me think of the aflac ad. the government added another $60 billion to the deficit in june. so the grand total on money that we ve borrowed so far this fiscal year is $904 billion. the real headline, though, is that that number confirmed that we are on solid track to hit a $1 trillion deficit for the fourth year in a row. well, the sky high numbers start to blur in this country. it s trillions here and trillions there and hundreds of trillions. it gets confusing. tonight actually there s a really frighteningly easy way to put that $1 trillion in perspective. so to give you just a sense of how much money we re burning through that we do not have, remember the $1.2 trillion in automatic cuts that coming at the end of the year? the so-called sequester cuts that republicans and democrats alike say will kill

good evening, everyone. i m erin burnett. outfront tonight, the president s math doesn t add up. in a rose garden announcement today, president obama called for a one-year extension of the bush tax cuts for families who make up to $250,000. so, for those families who make $250,000 or more, their taxes will go up in january. i believe our prosperity has always come from an economy that s built on a strong and growing middle class. so my message to congress is this, pass a bill extending the tax cuts for the middle class. i will sign it tomorrow. pass it next week, i ll sign it next week. pass it next well, you get the idea. but how much would extending the tax cuts for the family s making under $250,000 help our economy? bear with me if you will. i want to start by showing you something that the president and most democrats and republicans agree on, and that is that letting all the tax cuts expire would hurt the economy. so if we let all the bush tax cuts expire, the r
