The president's week ahead Washington (CNN) - President Obama arrived back at the White House Sunday afternoon, concluding a 10-day, four country, round-the-world trip to India and the Far East. The president returns to Washington on the same day that a wave of newly-elected Republican Congressional candidates arrived in the city to start a week of freshman orientation sessions on Capitol Hill. The president faces a far different political landscape in Washington this week as he turns his focus back to domestic issues and a lame-duck Congress. Among the highlights of the president's week ahead: on Thursday he will hold a meeting with bipartisan Congressional leadership at the White House, including future Speaker of the House, Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio).

Obama rested and ready for clash with RepublicansWashington (CNN) - After a shellacking at home, it was nine grueling days on the road in Asia, or as President Obama himself put it with a laugh, "Around the world - in less than 80 days." But when Obama showed up unexpectedly in the press cabin of Air Force One Sunday afternoon after a long flight of about 14 hours home from Japan, I was one of the few reporters onboard and he looked rested and ready to face off with Republican leaders on tax cuts on other issues.
