President Obama to visit Racine Wednesday
RACINE, Wis. (AP) – President Barack Obama will hold a town hall meeting on the economy in Racine on Wednesday.
The White House had announced his visit to Wisconsin on Thursday but released more details Saturday.
The event at Racine Memorial Hall is free and open to the public, but tickets are required. They will be available at Festival Hall in Racine on Tuesday from 10 a.m. until tickets run out. Tickets will be limited to two per person.
Obama’s last trip to Wisconsin was in November, when he visited a Madison school to talk about his education reform plans. He also stopped in Green Bay last June to discuss health care reform.

Peggy West is a genius compared to the leading Republican and Tea Party women out here in Arizona and Nevada. The Tea Party nutjob running against Harry Reid is basing her platform on the total elimination of social security and medicare. After calling social security "welfare" she was informed that working people pay into it while working. Her response? "Who cares. It's still welfare!"

Obama's poll numbers are in the basement. All this is another attempt to get some support. It will be interesting to see how many people who dislike Obama will be allowed in. This thing is fixed weeks in advance. Most of us who dislike Obama have jobs. We don't have time to go tell this weasel what we really think of him. His handlers do a good job to separate him from the real Americans. So how is that "Hope and Change" working for you so far?

Maybe he can bring Biden along, to call some more Wisconsonites a “Smartass” like he did in Milwaukee yesterday. Instead of going into a custard shop and asking for ice cream, he can go into a butcher shop and ask for some fresh fish. Or, Obama can eliminate the middle man and just insult us all personally. That would be extra special.

You guys should stop complaining cuz one the health care we have now isnt as good as it was supposed to be. also the law has just been signed give it a try u guys are too hard on democrats they went to college and we voted for most of these people.so if u want to say u have the right to choose tell that to ur congress men or state official. as for obama people are just tryin to make it look like america made a mistake he has done things to help us and we had a full 8 years of a terrible president and i will be so as happy as ever when a obama fixes bush's mistakes. You can find full medical coverage at the lowest price from http://bit.ly/9sfoMb obama has to put up with the wo0rld judging his every move and trying to fix the mess we are in we are lucky anyone wants to be our president.
