Sen. Dick Durbin (IL), the No. 2 Democrat in the chamber, on Sunday touted President Obama’s lead in the polls but said the president’s reelection campaign will not to become complacent.
“The momentum has shifted in Obama’s direction and that’s a good thing from out point of view,” he said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We’re not taking anything for granted.”
He said Mitt Romney’s woes “have given the president more traction” in battleground states.
