It is August, and every August the Democratic Candidate for President disappears from the News

[UCmeNdc]

It seems like Every August the Democratic Presidential Candidates take a break. Instead of pushing and fighting tooth and nail for more voters they disappear for vacation.

Hillary Clinton better get back out there and keep pushing her ideas and agenda in the media.

Where is her next big rally anyway?

1. Relax. Trump's campaign is imploding.

When your adversary is destroying himself the most sensible thing to do is just sit on the sidelines and watch. He's writing Clinton's ads for her.

4. Meanwhile, Clinton and Kaine are on their bus tour. . .

. . .in critical swing states. . .and sending out support for down-ticket candidates.

2. She's been in battleground states, Colorado today

visiting local factories to set the scene for her new commercial about Trump's outsourcing.

3. Hillary is not taking a break

Someone posted a full schedule for Hillary earlier today. I think she only had one off day scheduled.

5. It almost feels like we need to get out of the way of the train wreck in progress.

But I do understand what you mean. I do want to hear about Clinton's ideas and her plans for the first 100 days.

But the Trump thing -- it feels like we need to see how this plays out. If the Republicans choose another candidate to run, we'd have to develop oppo and re-tool to campaign against that person.

We shouldn't lay all our cards on the table just yet.

6. There is this thing called the Olympics

pretty big deal, that is the one thing that can take the air out of the press coverage of political races a bit.

That said, Hillary has been busting ass from PA westward since the end of the convention.

13. Perhaps Trump can get a Psych evaluation during that period.

8. She and Bill

attended the funeral of a friend yesterday. Reason enough to "take a day off"

[bluestateguy]

11. Well fortunately she is not doing that, so you can stop worrying

She did scoot out yesterday to go to a funeral (hope that's ok w/you), and she is doing an event in Colorado today.

And she's outspending Trump 80-1 on TV.

12. Since last Thursday night, she has done rallies...

at:
PA: Philly, Hatfield,Harrisburg,Johnstown, Pittsburgh (w/ Mark Cuban)
Ohio: Youngstown, Ashland, Columbus, Cleveland
and in Nebraska, with Warren Buffet.

10 rallies in 4 days (7/29 - 8/1)

Kaine was with her in PA and OH, and also did rallies in VA, and at least 2 in Florida, on 8/1 & 8/2.
