Election Stratigies

In the last ten primary elections Sen. Hillary Clinton has been on the losing end. Many argue that the reason she is not doing so hot may have something to do with her campaign techniques. For those who have yet do read or listen to how Sen. Clinton trying to win a percentage of her votes, is by trying to make the other guy look bad. “Barack Obama is inexperienced and all talk, no action, while Clinton is ready now to become commander-in-chief, manage a shaky economy and win in November.” (Chuck Lindell). One would imagine that if something does not work the first few times, you may be better off trying a new technique. There are a few people that seem to believe that such as Barack Obama national campaign manager David Plouffe saying "So far, when they've taken this negative turn, voters have rejected it," Plouffe said. "This is what we expect, though. She gave a very negative speech (Wednesday) in New York. I don't think it will be very long before we see very negative (campaigning) in Texas." I would hope that Sen. Clinton would try a new strategy, maybe even take a few hints from Obama book and focus on the issues and figure out ways to fix them.
