You mean before she ran for VP? G Hey, she looked out for you and Alaska. Took the local crooks to task. Made them resign. You're a lucky guy to live there.

Obama to supporters: I understand your frustration news.yahoo.com SAN FRANCISCO – President Barack Obama is telling his supporters he understands their frustration over the compromises he's made with Republicans, while preparing them for more to come. It's a timely warning given the upcoming vote on raising the nation's debt limit and the ongoing debate over long-term deficit reduction, both issues Obama says can only be solved if Republicans and Democrats work together. But it also comes as Obama is easing into his 2012 re-election campaign. And many of Obama's liberal backers, tired of watching the president cede ground to the GOP on spending cuts and tax breaks for the wealthy, may find further compromise hard to accept. During a raucous fundraiser focused on young people in San Francisco Wednesday night, Obama said his supporters are not alone in their frustration. "There are times when I've felt the same way you do. It's a big, complicated, messy democracy," he said. "We knew this wouldn't be easy."
