Trump proved one thing—going directly at Obama (hard) works. Obama is vunerable on the issues, and if the GOP would go after Obama on the issues they will win.

That's it in a nutshell. Now will any Repugs learn?

“Trump proved one thing—going directly at Obama (hard) works. Obama is vulnerable on the issues, and if the GOP would go after Obama on the issues they will win.”

Absolutely correct!

Gingrich may have his baggage and shoot himself in the foot, but his most recent attacks on Obama have almost seemed to be directed at out-Trumping Trump's attacks!

Trump _has_ shown that you can attack Obama head-on and beat back the racist counter-attacks.

Obama hides behind his “nice likable guy just like you” persona, but Trump did show that this can be pierced and I hope others will follow because the Obama opposition assassination team is as deadly as Seal Team 6!

GOP candidates won't survive if they don't launch preemptive, inilateral, politically lethal attacks directly at Obama starting NOW.
