"Will the President Finally Engage?"

With the unsurprising announcement that President Obama's seeking a second term, 2012 election themes will start to take shape. It's clear Rethugs plan to make the size and role of government their overarching theme. That, according to E.J. Dionne, would be a good battleground for the President if only he would forcefully engage, preferably when the Rethugs release their Medicare-killing budget this week. Dionne concludes, "This most certainly is his time to stand up for the vision of a practical, progressive government that he once advanced so eloquently." Amen.

(UPDATE: Or with this be the approach?)
