Hillary needs to run to Obama, Obamacare, drop in deficit, unemployment numbers, consumer

confidence numbers, and the stock market numbers. She needs to campaign hard on these items. What is going right. Stop
running away from a good record. She can win if she isn't afraid to embrace all of the good things. Stop watching Fox, these
people will never be won over, so don't even try. Win over the pragmatic, Stand strong, loyalty counts for a lot in this
country. Unfortunately only Republicans seem to stick with their party hell or high water.

The best thing that could happen is that Repukes overplay their hand and nominate Ted Cruz.

I think Scott Brown and John Kasich are going to be the alternatives to Cruz and Paul. Both are from swing states, and decidedly bland enough to be non threatening to low info goobers in a general election.

Winning strategy, there. Worked well when Kerry was forced to campaign against himself in 2004.

was facing a big mess going into office, the banking bill was passed without sensible rules to follow and he had to sit back and basically unable to change those rules. The auto industry was put back on their feet and put lots of people back to work. He worked hard to push ACA through, it has helped lots of people and will continue to provide health care.
