I noticed that Obama is stumping for a few today who already have a very wide lead.
I think it’s because he just wants to have stumped for someone who didn’t lose. He’s selecting very carefully with whom he appears.
“I noticed that Obama is stumping for a few today who already have a very wide lead.”
Who? In point of fact none of them have a very wide lead. Even Barney Frank is in danger. Who is he stumping with that has a very wide lead?
There are 6 seats that are believed to be safe Democrat.
Vermont, New York, New York, Maryland, Hawaii, Oregon.
Has Obama been going there? I don’t know. If he has, that would support the theory of “going to where the Dem will win”.
I think that Obama is going where there are close races, in states where the candidate does want him there, in states where he isn’t clearly unpopular.
WV is close, as well, but Obama would not be able to help, as he’s unpopular there, and Manchin is running away from him. Coons isn’t running away from Obama as much as other candidates in other states.
