Obama takes Ohio healthcare skeptics aboard Air Force One

By Eric Zimmermann,The Hill

 Obama puts the pressure on House Democrats

President Obama is getting some face time with two lawmakers who are skeptical of healthcare reform.

The president invited Reps. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) and Martha Fudge (D-Ohio) aboard Air Force One for his flight Monday to Ohio,where the president will hold a townhall on healthcare. Kucinich represents the Cleveland suburbs where Obama will be speaking.

Both lawmakers are liberals who are upset that the bill does not go far enough to crack down on insurance companies. Kucinich has said he is a "firm no,"while Fudge is undecided. The flight will give the president an opportunity to press the Ohioans to vote for final passage.
