3. The people that say our candidate cant win certain states......
......only say that because they know their candidate has no intentions of fighting for every state.

Some Democrats refuse to accept that the strategy of focusing on a narrow "safe" set of blue states has been a losing position since Reagan in 1980.

Even Bill Clinton's use of a key state strategy was a failure, as he would have lost both of his elections if there hadnt been a strong enough third party candidate to syphon off GOP votes.
