​President Obama just directly linked himself to another red-state Democrat Senate candidate. Calling in to Atlanta’s V-103 radio station on Thursday, the president said a Michelle Nunn victory in Georgia “means that Democrats keep control of the Senate” and could continue moving forward with his agenda.

“If Michelle Nunn wins, that means that Democrats keep control of the Senate and that means that we can keep on doing some good work,” he said. “It is critically important to make sure folks vote.”

Despite many vulnerable Democrats’ efforts to distance themselves from him this cycle, President Obama hasn’t made it easy for them. On Monday of this week on Al Sharpton’s radio show, he described Democratic candidates as “folks who vote with me, they have supported my agenda in Congress,” as well as “strong allies and supporters of me.” Earlier this month, he also told an audience to “make no mistake — these policies are on the ballot, every single one of them.”
