""People don't think he's lived up to his promises," one source told Politico."You won on lowering costs, putting more money back into people's pockets. And people don't feel that right now.""
""People are still hurting financially and they want to know the White House is paying attention and trying to fix the problem as quickly as possible.""
""The president is very keyed into what's going on, and he recognizes, like anybody, that it takes time to do an economic turnaround, but all the fundamentals are there, and I think we'll see him be very, very focused on prices and cost of life.""
Anonymous White House sources attributed recent GOP losses to voters feeling that promises were unmet and that the president had not focused on cost-of-living concerns. Sources said voters expected lower costs and more money back into their pockets but do not feel those results. One source warned that heavy emphasis on foreign policy while people struggle domestically produced predictable off-year results. Campaign deputy James Blair called the problems overcomeable, proposing targeted resources for key districts and promising more emphasis on cost-of-living messaging into the new year. Blair said economic turnarounds take time but that fundamentals support improvement.
