Democrats have a problem and everyone knows it. President Obama calls it a “congenital disease.” If they can’t control it, Obama could spend the final years of his presidency battling not only a Republican House but also a Republican Senate.
Democrats are banking on the belief that they can better identify potential supporters, motivate them and get them to the polls — in essence, reshape the midterm electorate to make it look more like the electorate in a presidential year. To try to do so, they will for the first time fully employ the sophisticated tools and techniques used in Obama’s presidential campaigns to aid Senate and some House candidates.
Whether Democrats can overcome the party’s historic disadvantage in midterm election turnout with more money and more sophisticated techniques is the critical question.
“If you can convince your base to behave like it’s a presidential election, it would be a game-changer for the Democrats,” said Notre Dame’s Nickerson. “But I don’t know how you do that. If anyone did, the Democrats would be far more successful than they are.”

The Republicans are gonna take away your right to vote and to choose and they are gonna take away all your benefits! They want to kill all the seniors and to enslave blacks, gays, and women!
I think Harry Reid is about to hand the Republicans a great gift; undeniable evidence of his decades-long corruption in office.
The communist DemocRATS are doing a lot of bedwetting right now. It’s so bad they even have their Kenyan, pen and phone race baiter out there hitting the campaign trail pretty hard. American politics really sucks since the commie ‘RATS introduced their corrupt, Chicago mob style politics into the process.
1) Agree with the Democrats’ hyperbole - We’re sexist, racist, anti-American, terrorist, homophobic, evil, fascist, Nazi, scum.
2) Or maybe we’re not, and that’s all our opponent has to win your vote with.
3) Deliver the message.
Do this in the political ads and win.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people when they are herded together in large numbers.
Recall how the political elites chuckled back in February 2007 when an unknown, half-arsed, illegal immigrant, failed community organizer from Chicago announced he was running for the democratic nomination against the fabled Clinton juggernaut.
Everyone knew that Bill Clinton was the smartest political operator to ever live and that the 2008 nomination and election was a guaranteed lock for The Beast herself.
They sneaked up behind us in 2012 and hit us with a dirty stick. They WILL turn out their base in very high numbers.
Pretty good job of capturing his dementia.
Especially when Boehner, Cantor and the rest of the amnesty at all costs GOPe are going to throw the election with their enemy collaboration.
Thank you! I expect the BLM to show up here tomorrow AM!!
Yes and they are not hiding it either.
Don’t count out the possibility of massive vote fraud either. We know the Democrats are capable of that too.
sophisticated tools and techniques: lie and lie some more.
Do you mean “loose” or “lose”? Both may be plausible
but they provide different meanings to your comment.
I’m guessing you mean “lose”. I make similar mistakes
sometimes.
Dems will commit voting fraud to win...
He won because nobody wanted another 4 years of Clinton’s!
(And the rest of the field was equally corrupt.)
