Top White House officials are warning liberal and labor leaders to brace themselves for President Obama’s budget proposal.
Gene Sperling, director of the National Economic Council, sought in meetings last week to lift the left’s gloom about Washington’s crackdown on spending by promising that the president this year will focus on job creation rather than deficit cutting.
Obama staffers sought to present their budget plan as a glass half full. According to sources familiar with the briefings, they promised that the president will focus on jobs and the economy, instead of deficit-cutting, which dominated last year’s debate on Capitol Hill.
Obama has signaled in recent weeks that he plans to run a populist reelection campaign. He will need to keep liberal activist and labor groups — important parts of the Democratic base — energized for his strategy to work.

Obama has a budget??!! He bloats the size of the federal government spending us into the largest debt and fiscal crisis in decades and now comes out with this. Paul Ryan needs to write one and Obummer needs to nod his head in the affirmative. Our "president" is a disaster and incompetent.

He's going to pull the "Look I'm the better Romney..." game....
Bush & Gore did similar in 2000......
(Romney & Obama are already sounding like twins separated at birth)Hey but keep that military budget that spends 94% of all federal income tax revenues... That's what we need more war, and bad debt sold to China.... Which when you look at it is pretty pathetic, it's not like they haven't cut prices as much as they could, even forcing their population into slavery for us....
