President Barack Obama is trying to salvage what most polls indicate is about to be a dismal election for Democrats by focusing on his administration's supposed economic successes. It makes sense, in a way, since his foreign policy--to the extent that there is one--is a complete disaster; the administration is caught up in a series of scandals (Benghazi, IRS, Veterans Affairs, to name a few) that fortunately for them, the media choose to ignore; and the administration's incompetence, or worse, in managing crises such as immigration and Ebola, and even the safety and security of the President, has become glaringly obvious.
