Obama makes rare campaign trail appearance, people leave early

(Reuters) - President Barack Obama made a rare appearance on the campaign trail on Sunday with a rally to support the Democratic candidate for governor in Maryland, but early departures of crowd members while he spoke underscored his continuing unpopularity.

With approval levels hovering around record lows, Obama has spent most of his campaign-related efforts this year raising money for struggling Democrats, who risk losing control of the U.S. Senate in the Nov. 4 midterm election.

Most candidates from his party have been wary of appearing with him during their election races because of his sagging popularity.

Is it just me or do they match from suit to skin? Identical hair styles and waving hands. He is an Obama poster boy.

I hope the folks that left early vote the same way....for someone else as they are disgusted with the current state of affairs!

I think it's awesome they left early, but it would be more awesome if they weren't even there.
