On the campaign trail, President Obamas status as the Democratic Partys No. 1 rock star has been supplanted by a power couple kicking off their political comeback tour.

While Mr. Obama has been a rare visitor on the stump over the past few weeks, Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton are in demand, parachuting into battleground states and rallying support for Democrats in key races.

Last week alone saw Mrs. Clinton campaign for candidates in Minnesota, North Carolina and elsewhere, while the 42nd president is lending a hand to Democrats in tight contests in Kentucky, Louisiana, Arkansas and Wisconsin, to name just a few.

By contrast, Mr. Obama has done just two campaign events thus far rallies for Maryland gubernatorial hopeful Anthony Brown and Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn. A planned campaign stop for Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy was scrapped last week amid the Ebola crisis.

The White House said Wednesday that the president will head to Wisconsin Tuesday to stump for Mary Burke, the Democrat challenging incumbent Republican Gov. Scott Walker, and trips to relatively friendly political ground in Maine, Michigan and Pennsylvania in the campaigns final days are also possible.

Political analysts say the presidents status as something of a pariah in the years hottest contests comes from a combination of factors, including low approval numbers and the fact that many tight races are being fought in Republican-leaning states where Mr. Obama is even more unpopular.

On the other hand, Mrs. Clinton is seen as the partys future, as she is miles ahead of all potential Democratic rivals in the partys primary process. She has yet to officially declare whether she will run in 2016.

Her husband remains his partys top weapon on the trail, with approval ratings in the mid-60 percent range, recent polls show, and his record in the 1990s leads many voters to hark back to a time of economic prosperity.
