Steve Schmidt, GOP strategist, discussed the new strategy by Hillary and her surrogates.

[kentuck]

It was on one of the early morning shows on MSNBC...I forget which?

But he questioned whether Hillary was making a mistake in strategy by talking about the Senate candidates down the ballot? He thought they were taking their attention away from Donald and focusing on the Senate opponents?

Do you think the strategy is correct? Or should they keep the focus and definition on Donald J Trump?

1. Polling positions Clinton-Kaine for

a very good night on Nov. 8th.

Some attention and cash to down-ballot Democrats seems like a sound strategy to me.

All for a full-court press.

[kentuck]

2. Barack and Michelle are doing a great job helping Hillary promote down ballot candidates.

She is very lucky to have such hard-working surrogates.

That is why she has to fight to keep "Obamacare" and fix the problems in it, and hope for some bi-partisan help. If not, the people need to give her a Congress she can work with. That would be a good deed.

[saltpoint]

3. "...a Congress she can work with." kentuck,

that would be a really good thing, and I hope voters see things the same way.

There's a lot of hard work ahead over the next four to eight years.

[kentuck]

6. It may have to be a majority Democratic Congress if she cannot get any help from the Repubs.

The people need to make a change in Congress. This has to be one of the worst Congresses in the history of our nation?

[saltpoint]

8. Agree. McConnell in the Senate and the entire

GOP House caucus. As many of them as we can toss overboard, the better.

[kentuck]

10. That egg-sucking McConnell is more responsible than any other hound dog Senator...

for the blocks and gridlock in our government. It is he that is blocking the hearing for the Supreme Court nominee.

[saltpoint]

11. Yes. And he's had some help from his

good pal chuck Grassley.

A blue Senate would be a sweet thing this coming January.

[world wide wally]

4. A Congress she can work with is the secret to a successful America

It shouldn't be a secret!

[stopbush]

5. Ds have an historic chance to run the table in this election.

It would border on political malpractice to squander this opportunity by not overtly working for the down-ticket racrs.

[Renew Deal]

7. I saw her today and she was talking about Trump

But she can be blamed for not controlling headlines

[loyalsister]

9. It's essential to give those races attention

If by some horrible chance, Trump wins, we have to have a congress that will minimize, if not prevent the damage he could do.

12. GOP strategists, remember

It's projection. Trying the old 'please don't throw me into the briar patch' routine.

He knows that it is going to hell and they stand to lose the whole kit and kabootle.

[spanone]

13. fuck schmidt. he carried water for sarah palin in the mccain candidacy.

[mulsh]

14. Mr.Schmidt is a professional republican strategist, I'd take every insight he dispensed remembering

that salient fact first and foremost. I sincerely doubt his loathing of Trump trumps his over all party loyalty.

[madokie]

15. tRump is toast

all but finished

Hill is smart is that she needs the house and senate to get anything done. The more the merrier is the way it is
