Obama Tells Dems: Support Obamacare or I won’t Campaign for You. Is this a Threat or a Promise?

I had to laugh when I read this article that said Obama threatened wavering Dems who might not support Obamacare. 

The president will refuse to make fund-raising visits during November elections to any district whose representative has not backed the bill.

Mr Obama's threat came as the year-long debate over his signature domestic policy entered its final week.

Mr Obama is personally telephoning congressmen who are still on the fence this week, in between several personal appearances devoted toward swinging public opinion.

Considering his plummeting favorability ratings and his success rate, so far, campaigning for Dem candidates (think Virginia and New Jersey governorship races), this might actually push a few more congress people into the No category.
