WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama hit the campaign trail together Sunday for the first time since the 2008 presidential race during a trip to Ohio.

The Obamas will crisscross Ohio to campaign for Gov. Ted Strickland and raise money for the Democratic National Committee. They'll cap their day in Columbus at a large, nighttime rally on the campus of Ohio State University aimed at firing up the young Democrats and first-time voters who helped Obama carry Ohio on his way to the presidency in 2008.

Obama has been campaigning coast to coast as the Nov. 2 midterm elections fast approach, trying to convince wary voters that his policies have put the nation's economy on a path toward recovery. But even the president has acknowledged Americans are angry and frustrated in the face of 9.6 percent unemployment.

"There is no doubt that this a difficult election. That's because we've been through an incredibly difficult time as a nation," Obama said Saturday at a campaign rally in Boston for Gov. Deval Patrick.

1. I'll be watching wherever it's on.

The President and First Lady are a dynamic duo when presented together, what ever the venue. Lately I've been trying to find live streams, no canned comments by the pundits along the way. ;-)
