Obama exhorts Democrats to 'stand up,' mocks GOP on economy

A defiant President Obama came to Philadelphia on Thursday to urge Democrats to keep aggressively promoting their beliefs, despite an Election Day drubbing.

Embodying that combative outlook, Obama added a swipe at Republicans and Mitt Romney for, in his view, trying to imitate Democrats' concern for the average American.

"Even though their policies haven't quite caught up yet, their rhetoric is starting to sound pretty Democratic," Obama said in a speech to House Democrats meeting at the Society Hill Sheraton.

GOP leaders, like Democrats here, have stressed that their ideas are the ones to help the middle class thrive.

"I consider imitation the highest form of flattery. Come on board," Obama said after mentioning a senator (whom he didn't name) who "was suddenly shocked, shocked, that the top 1 percent is doing really well."

And in a clear reference to Romney, the 2012 GOP presidential nominee, who has pledged to focus on income inequality if he runs again, Obama sarcastically said that a "presidential candidate on the other side" is now "deeply concerned with poverty. That's great!"

With lawmakers rising and heartily cheering, Obama concluded by urging them to "stand up and not be defensive about what we believe in - that's why we're Democrats."

Republicans said voters rejected Democratic policies in November when they turned the Senate over to the GOP and gave the party its largest House majority in more than 80 years.

"President Obama and Washington Democrats, they're not hearing what we have to say," Renee Amoore, deputy chair of the Pennsylvania Republican Party, said before Obama's speech. She said Democrats "keep supporting the same old policies that will grow our government instead of the economy."
