President Obama told senators that he would not be offended if they asked him to stay away from their re-election races this year, the Washington Post reports.
Said one senator: “The president said that he is thoroughly committed to helping Democrats in tough races. He said he knew he is not popular in some of the states so he would not be offended if he were not invited to visit them this year. But he said he could be helpful in some parts of some states.”
