The President’s Month, So Far . . .

May ended with David Axelrod getting flustered by pro-Romney hecklers and protesters at his event in Boston, while Romney held a press event outside the gates of the shuttered Solyndra plant.

June, for President Obama, so far:

• Unemployment increases one-tenth of one percent.
• The Wisconsin AFSCME membership declines 55 percent in one year.
• The Democrats lose the Wisconsin recall election by a wider margin than in the 2010 gubernatorial election.
• Bill Clinton says the economy is “in recession.”
• The president declares that the private sector is “doing fine.”
• Romney raises more money than he does.
• The Commerce Secretary is involved in several auto accidents.
• Attorney General Eric Holder faces contempt of Congress charges.
• The president’s 54-minute “reset button” speech flops.
• Multiple polls show Michigan in play, or even a small Romney lead.

Still to come: The Obamacare decision from the Supreme Court.

Perhaps this isn’t the single-toughest month any incumbent president running for reelection has faced — May 2004, when the Abu Ghraib prison abuse story dominated the headlines for weeks, was pretty tough for the Bush administration — but this has to rank among the worst political months for any incumbent president.
