If you were advising Hillary on how to win in Texas, Ohio, and maybe Wisconson, as well as Pa, what advise would you give her?
I would advise her to try and appeal to the Democrat base and get some of the socialist vote from Obama.

Promise to raise taxes and surrender to the terrorists. That is what the base wants to hear anyway so just come out and say it.

what a bitchy thing to say.
she's been fighting neocons too long.

how do you tell someone to get out of that mindset?
i don't know if you can!

blackmail more super delegates.
i guess that would be my advice to her.
Right, she likes having the Cattle Voter Bloc on her side.

where's the beef is not the literal cattle - nor is it the lobbyests.
It's Bush's performance - so that's why i was troubled to hear you say it ws a call for lobbyests.

Sarcasm is cool. It means you don't take things lightly, and am willing to go toe toe with "bull" shitters.
( Lotta beef in that statement)

no kidding, i was referring to the majority of clinton voters, the over 60 crowd who can't completely bring themselves to vote for a black man...if she loses them it won't matter because obama will be the nominee, in the meantime she's doing a lot of damage...we'll see

To begin with, my disdain for Hillary shouldn't be taken as something that will carry over if she loses. Once I see her starting to slip I will back off and certainly not rub it in.

This is a fair question considering she is obviously falling behind and putting her eggs in one basket with Ohio and Texas. I would think that she will need to remain on the offensive against Obama, attacking his policies where applicable while being careful not to over do it and turn her supporters his way. Keeping Bill out of the picture will help with that. Other than that I am not sure what else she can do.

Don't expect to see her as a VP for Obama. Just a guess but I don't think he wants her.
