obama faced some headwinds in 2012. it made romney unacceptable. he got his approval up to 50. the committee is not going to get better. it doesn t welcome like the white house will be more comfortably run over the next two years. he is off to a bad start. i think he should worry about spending less time getting inside his head. i think what he was trying to do, part of what the democratic candidates have to do is one say it may not be trump because he could be in jail but also to get democratic voters, to get them excited and energized, to think about a world path beyond that. for so long so many people have said it will be impossible. he will get a second term. nothing we can do about it. part of what you have to do is say what it could be like without him. everyone stick around. democratic presidential candidate amy will join cnn live

explain tax report and can t drop these other things on medicare and entitlement reform. they were beat up again on that and the democratic convention and they re going to have to continue to fight them on that. and one thing romney has to do, but bill clinton did for barack obama is explain some of the issues. and just matter of fact, factual point to take some of the fear out of it and explain in ways that people understand. that s what i m suggesting. it s not complicated. mitt romney is a salesman. mitt, go out and sell your presidency. the other good thing coming out of this convention, the democrats obviously don t have any new material on bain. they brought up a few old examples of companies that were basically on their way to failing before bain capital bought them. not any new material here. i think if you think of the american people ready to fire obama, this was not a good week for obama in terms of making romney unacceptable.
