'Unring that bell’: Obama's fundraiser speech missing line that made Dems cringe

Gwyneth Paltrow was in awe of President Obama last night at a DNC fundraiser the actress hosted at her Los Angeles home. While Obama’s speech contained much of the usual rhetoric, a line he’s used recently describing the upcoming election was conspicuously absent:

POTUS avoided policies "on the ballot" line at last night's fundraiser. Instead said "our values and our ideals…are at stake."

Message received? There’s a good chance we’ve heard the last of Obama’s “my policies are on the ballot” reminder.
