Clear the calendar! With his health-care reform agenda in the balance, the White House announced Friday morning that President Obama is postponing his trip to Asia, originally scheduled for next week, so he can focus on shoring up support among Democrats. The initial itinerary had Obama traveling to Indonesia, Guam, and Australia from March 18 to March 24, which coincided with his daughters’ school vacation. The new plan, from March 21 to March 26, includes stops at the same countries but his family will not join him. The news was first reported on press secretary Robert Gibbs’ Twitter feed.
