November Coattails...

Is there a single Democrat running for Senate/House in a red state that wouldn't rather have Obama at the top of the ticket instead of Clinton?

A Clinton candidacy means that the GOP has a much easier time with their GOTV efforts... which in turn means we win less senate and house seats. It is very easy for the GOP to get Republicans to the polls in that case... Republicans are self-motivated to stop a Hillary presidency from occuring.

Obama would have serious coattails for Dem politicians all over the country. He would get enthusiastic Democratic turnout... and as important, depressed GOP turnout.

Both Hillary and Obama would turn out Democrats. Only Hillary can turn out Republicans in big numbers.



If you love the Democratic party and want a stronger hold on the Senate and House, vote Obama.
