Upper Marlboro: The US President Barack Obama made a rare appearance on the campaign trail on Sunday with a rally to support the Democratic candidate for governor in Maryland, though the event was marred somewhat by early departures of crowd members and a yelling heckler.
With approval levels hovering around record lows, Obama has spent most of his efforts raising money for struggling Democrats, who risk losing control of the U.S. Senate in the November 4 midterm election.
Although many candidates have been wary of appearing with him during their races, Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown of Maryland, running for governor, and Governor Pat Quinn of Illinois, running for re-election, share different opinion.
