Most public office job don't want people to look at them as what party they are on, they want to look at them as help American and it's not about what party they are in, either democrat or republican. Obama can bring this issues up but then he will cause people to think Obama is only do a democrat favor more than they do for whole America citizens.

Most people know it's not okay for anybody focus on their party more than what for all of us.
