At a 60-person Democratic fundraiser Monday night, President Barack Obama told donors that debates over scandals such as Benghazi and Obamacare are pointless.

"The debate we're having now is about what, Benghazi? Obamacare? And it becomes this endless loop. It's not serious. It's not speaking to the real concerns that people have," said Obama.

The event, held at the Potomac, Maryland, home of a doctor, comes on the heels of a new Politico poll of key 2014 midterm election states that found 60% of voters say the Obamacare debate is "not over." Furthermore, according to a new Gallup poll, Americans rate "abuse of power/corruption" as the second "most important" problem in America.

The Government Accountability Institute (GAI) released a Benghazi timeline that revealed Obama failed to attend his daily intelligence briefings (officially known as the Presidential Daily Brief, or PDB) for the five consecutive days leading up to the September 11, 2012, terrorist attacks on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi.

At the fundraiser, Obama explained that Republicans are "trying to figure out how they can make people sufficiently cynical, sufficiently angry, sufficiently suspicious that they can win the next election."

Obama added, "I hate to be blunt about it, but that's the play."

It has been interesting to watch what he responds to after these 6 years of him in office. Him talking about this means it is a issue for him politically.  It is serious for him.

The longer this burgeoning VA scandal goes on with no comment from him, the more it appears he just doesn't care about it.

Very soon HE will become the issue.

The MSM will never allow that to happen.

Agreed. The msm has adopted Obama to the point where I believe they'd sacrifice pushing the progressive agenda to save Obama.

Is there a single day when Obama is NOT at a fundraiser?

I believe Emperor Hirohito said about Hiroshima, "it's not serious", too.
