Going before groups of autoworkers and union members today, President Barack Obama tried to assure blue-collar audiences that the economy is coming back -- and that his administration deserves credit for saving some of their jobs.
He recently addressed the AFL-CIO convention in Pittsburgh, where he urged the nation's largest labor union to support his health care overhaul.
"We didn't come here just to respond to crises; we came here to address America's prosperity in the future, and I think that's what he outlined," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs told reporters Monday, previewing the president's message.
