Obama and Clinton plot a final-stretch blitz

Source: Politico

President Barack Obama was back here Tuesday, seven weeks and just a few miles from where he gave his big Democratic convention speech for Hillary Clinton — and most importantly for the campaign. He held her in a long, long embrace after she surprised the crowd on stage as he finished. He pointed to her. He kissed her on the head. All those good feelings you’re feeling about me, he was telling the crowd, pick it up and put it on her.

Front pages and cable news footage the next day looked like it had been produced right out of the Brooklyn HQ.

Now, according to people familiar with the matter, the White House and the Clinton campaign are deep in talks for how to make such a moment happen again, perhaps more than once, in the closing weeks before Election Day — and perhaps in the midst of early voting that’s about to kick off in states that Clinton’s looking to lock in well before Nov. 8.

Mr. Obama wants to stuff it up the Rethugs rear end,especially those who made his Presidential Terms a partisan nightmare. Think McTurtle is watching,how about Ryan,it ain't going to be pretty for either me thinks.

From Warren to Obama, even Sanders ( before he and his supporters got too much of themselves.), they all seems to
like and respect Hillary.

Contrary to MSM and RW meme, this is very telling. She clearly has a very high integrity and really care about policy making rather than politics.

She may not be a most popular head of the state; however, she will be the best executive in chief ever.
