Bloomberg: Obama "Deserves A Lot Of Credit" (VIDEO)

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg praised President Obama's infrastructure plans on Sunday's "Meet the Press."

Obama "deserves a lot of credit for trying to do what he promised to do when he got elected," Bloomberg told host David Gregory. The president, he argued, was tackling long-standing problems in education, energy independence, health care, and more, instead of only worrying about the stimulus. He credited Obama with using the economic crisis to "galvanize Congress" and "galvanize the country" to get behind ambitious new projects.

Schwarzenegger complimented Obama's focus as well. "I want America to rebuild," he said. "We're very fortunate that this president is listening." Watch:
