to diner, does hillary have to do that or does she say in moth balls? she doesn t haven t to do anything she doesn t want to do because she doesn t have any meaningful opposition to the democratic nomination. she doesn t have to do anything that any of us might want her to do at the this point. she can stay strategic and staged if indeed anything was staged. so obviously that was a big knock on her in the 2008 campaign. i guess the past is also prologue. but she doesn t have to stay this way, but if she wants to contrast herself from 2008 i don t think this is a great way to start. we talked about this yesterday. she needs a primary opponent. she ll get in campaign shape. she s clearly not in full cam an shape yet. chris christie has been doing this his entire term as governor up totown hall meetings.
how you handle it. it s like the pitcher can throw what he wants. the question is can you either put it in the third deck or do you rush the mound and take the pitcher on? what is he the, umpire? this is a rival player being allowed to come on and offer up criticism of a guy he s trying to beat sam. basically. it s a joke. swarmy there. let me help him out there. as mike huckabee i want to go back to chuck. two ways with announcing. one with rumble and excitement. a lot of fighting with neutral people like savannah guthrie. hillary had that kind of experience with her book tour. terry gross went after her. diane sawyer it wasn t like the right wing. and that was that wasn t good. i think it s all part of it is and what you talk to some people around the clinton campaign they ll tell you, look she needs to get into campaign shape. that s what i think. so that is another reason to do it the way they re doing it.
