PHILADELPHIA For Hillary Clinton, finding thousands of words for her speech Thursday accepting the Democratic presidential nomination will be easy.
Distilling her campaign to a simple few will be harder.
Think of Ronald Reagan boiling down his 1980 campaign to the powerful message, “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” Or Bill Clinton’s three main points in 1992: “The economy, stupid”; change vs. more of the same. Or Barack Obama’s in 2008: hope and change.
Yet today, after more than a year of campaigning, has Hillary Clinton been unable to craft a clear, cogent message – just a few simple words – that distills what her crusade has been all about?
“Her whole philosophy, that has been true of her whole life, is that ‘It Takes a Village,’ ” Clinton Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri said, referring to the title of one of the nominee’s books. “She believes in an America that is stronger for everyone. Not just those at the top.”
But Democratic strategist Marc Farinella said “Stronger together” was more a commentary on her Republican opponent, Donald Trump, and how divisive his campaign had been.
“What is Hillary’s vision?” he said. “That’s all about Trump tearing us apart and ‘I’m not going to be Trump.’ But not being Trump is not going to be enough to win the election.”
There’s no mistaking the simplicity and appeal of Trump’s “Make America great again.”
The billionaire’s message is quick, to the point, and goes to the heart of what his campaign is about: The country has been on a downward slide, become lawless, cows before terrorists and fears offending anyone.

“Gimme the Money.”
Grievance granny.
Sure she does.
“You OWE this to me!”
Plain and clear subtext to everything she says and does.
“Gimme them guns!!”
Her handlers have already tried a few, “Stronger Together” comes to mind. She’ll keep changing it up, this isn’t a tough to reverse/undo decision.
When she wore that paunchy devil suit that Jon Lovitz once wore on SNL, the focus group numbers were a little better, but not enough.
“I am not a crook!”

No, but the Simple will follow her and the Dem Party.
“I promise a closeted alcoholic lesbian in every pot”.
And they stole that from Warren Buffett.
“Hillary is a passionate, passionate, change enabler (or maybe just the regular kind of enabler, who can say?!).
BTW- nice blue dress, Michelle!
She’s got two very simple selling points:
1. I have a vagina.
2. It’s my turn.
It doesn’t get much simpler than that.
How about -
“Vote for the Lady-Parts candidate”?
Nope, do not understand it.
