| Presidential elections: Obama warns of tough race

| Barack Obama, who came to power riding a wave in 2008, has cautioned his supporters that four years later it is not going to be the same and warned donors of a close race in the November 2012 presidential elections.
Addressing his supporters at fund raisers held in his home town of Chicago, Obama warned that winning won't be a sure thing this time.
"We've still got a difficult economy. And that's why this is still going to be a close race," Obama said at a fund raiser in Chicago, where he owns a home.
"I've got to tell you that if we weren't coming out of this extraordinary recession, I think the American people would make their decision very, very quickly. But we've gone through three tough years," he said.
"You know the other side has been able to just sit on the sidelines and say no to everything, not cooperate, and then simply try to point the finger and say that somehow, this should have been fixed. And I understand that. That's politics. That's how Washington generally works. So this is going to be a tough battle," Obama said.
At another fund raiser in Chicago, Obama listed out his achievements and criticized the Republicans for opposing to his policies.
"When you've got the top Republican saying his number-one priority isn't creating more jobs, isn't solving the health care problems, isn't making sure that we're competitive in the 21st century, but is to beat me, then you know things aren't on the level," he said.
