Obama works hard to block GOP House Takeover

Few things will determine the success of President Obama's agenda in his final two years in office more than which party runs the House and Senate after November's election.

If Democrats can hold onto both the House and Senate, Obama has a good chance to see major portions of his agenda get a fair hearing and possible passage.

If Republicans take either the House or Senate, as some political forecasters have predicted, Obama can look forward to two years of Congressional logjams and fussing just to get minor initiatives on the drawing board.

Maybe those high stakes are why Obama is trying to build voter enthusiasm at fundraisers around the country with several high-profile events scheduled around the country in the three weeks until Election Day.

And Obama isn't the only Democrat on the road raising money and rallying party loyalists. First Lady Michelle Obama is scheduled to visit several political rallies and former President Bill Clinton has been criss-crossing the country on behalf of Democratic candidates.

If Democrats lose the House, no one will be able to hold Obama responsible for the defeat.
