This approach hasn't worked in the past
Shapiro writes:
"The leading Democratic contenders for the presidency are often praised on the campaign trail for their inspirational style (Barack Obama) and their forthright issue stands (John Edwards). But only Hillary Clinton is routinely hailed for the letter-perfect quality of her preparation."
Gore and Kerry were also both noted for their superior mastery of the issues and Gore, like Senator Clinton, also had the benefit of Clinton nepotism and we still lost BOTH TIMES (although the first time wasn't fair).
Inspirational style and forthright issue stands are going to go way, way further with the voting public than nuance, polish or wonkish mastery of the issues. I'm hoping the primary voters quickly wake to the fact that HC has too much political baggage, too little charisma and offers no fresh perspective. She remains unelectable.
