Discussion: Clinton Releases IA, NH Ads Touting Qualifications

Discussion for article #244886

Love it! She needs to run more ads like this. Keeping what we have, as the Republicans work so hard to destroy all, is an important part of this election. That’s why I don’t get those who at all costs will not vote for Hillary. As if staying home in a blue funk or worse, voting for a republican is going to make things better for the average American?

I think not. Staying home if Bernie doesn’t win IS a vote for a Republican!

She could also remind voters that this is not a new battle, keeping what we have fought for. Anyone remember the Clinton years’ budget surplus? Halliburton does.

Good ad, solid on facts. More of this, please. Most definitely, remind voters–especially those soft voters–what is at stake: economic policies, fair and progressive taxation, foreign relations, healthcare, environmental issues both domestic and global. Also make clear to voters how much of a role SCOTUS can play in our lives. We need less Scalias. Robertses, Thomases and Alitos. We need more RBGs, Sotomayors, Kagans, etc., folks who understand and appreciate the Constitution is a living, breathing document. Thank you.

Pretty straight ahead stuff, but the choice of picturing Cruz shooting a semi-automatic (or whatever it was) is pretty cool. Kind of underlines the difference between the Cruz and Joni gunslinger appeal and actual governing. Use that shit they think is so hot against them.

This ad works in contrast both Bernie, who has spent decades ranting and raving (not that there is anything wrong with that) while Hillary has been accomplishing stuff and getting national and international experience, and also in contrast to Trump and Cruz who both spend all their time grandstanding for the cameras.
