Why doesn't President Obama say anything about the Wisconsin protests?

Is it that his people are pulling strings behind the scenes?
State GOP Senate Leader Scott Fitzgerald told Fox News on Thursday that some of the people filing petitions against members of his caucus have "direct links" to President Obama's political team in Chicago. He suggested the president is keen on aiding labor groups in the state so they can deliver for Democrats in 2012.

Republican state Sen. Randy Hopper [said] "People from Organizing for America have been running the protests in Madison for quite some time now... I think that there's no question that the president has some involvement in this. I don't know what."
Hmmm. I'd like to know the details. Meanwhile, Obama is interested enough that his people are working to get and keep votes for 2012, but not interested enough to say anything. But who in the Democratic Party outside of the Wisconsin legislature is? I count Tammy Baldwin, Michael Moore, and Jesse Jackson. That makes the whole protest movement look left-wing. I wonder why national-level Democratic politicos are content to let things look that way.
