Will Obama's campaign for Democrats do any good?
0 
With around two weeks left before the mid term elections, U.S. President Barack Obama is getting down to the wire.
In a final push toward the end zone, the president continues to jet around the nation in a bid to reverse voter sentiment against the majority Democrat Congress, which is taking the brunt of the blame for the worst economy since the 1930s.
But the economy will trump most of Obama's efforts to muster up votes for Democrats, and there seems little the president can do so late in the game, experts said.
Since the summer, Obama has flown all over the country and listened to families' concerns in a bid to show that he is doing something about the harsh economy. He has met with residents of Fairfax, Virginia, Columbus, Ohio, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Des Moines, Iowa, and Richmond, Virginia.
On Sunday the president hit two cities in Ohio and on Monday stopped in Rockville, Maryland for a private fundraiser. On Wednesday he will travel to Seattle, Washington and meet with a local family at their home before hosting a discussion on women and the economy with other families in the area. More stops will follow in the lead up to the Nov. 2 elections.
Much campaigning, little return
But all his hard campaigning is unlikely to cool the ire of voters angry over jobs blaming the Democrat-led Congress, some experts said.
And that the president's disapproval rate stands at an all-time low of 56 percent also does not help, as it reflects poorly on Democratic candidates, some of whom are distancing themselves from him in the run up to the elections.
Indeed, 48 percent of likely voters are forecast to vote for their district's Republican congressional candidate, while 39 percent would go for the Democrat, said a Rasmussen report released on Monday.
Polling company Rasmussen said Democrats will likely hold 48 Senate seats after election day, while the Republicans will have 46. Six states are in the toss-up category -- California, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, Washington and West Virginia . All six toss-ups are currently held by Democrats.
