[The Old Hoosier]

I'm not making an opinion comment--just a factual one. He alienates us at his peril. This election is not going to be a slam-dunk.

No one is assuming it's going to be a slam dunk.

But if he is 'alienating' you on very many points, you must not have understood what he stood for in the first place.

He is not 'alienating' his base........that is, Republicans who were informed enough to know what goals he stated during his campaign.

And the vast majority of Americans understand that he has been forced to deal with enormous problems, and has dealt with them admirably and courageously.

And most conservatives understand the big picture, so that disagreement on a few issues will not 'alienate' them.......
