    EXCELLENT

    This is PERFECT !!

    He should have been doing this all along

    It's time to pivot the campaign

    Start talking to white ethnics, to working class people, to factory workers

    Don't worry about college campuses

    They're locked up, already !!

    It's true, the more people get to know Obama, the more they like him

    Hillary, is just the opposite....

    The more you know about that woman, the LESS you like her

    Lying about Bosnia, Lying about NAFTA, Lying about Northern Ireland, lying about supporting the Iraq War and lying about her 'experience'...

    Your time is almost over, Billary !!
