Democrats are insufficiently frightened

With news that Donald Trump is gaining on Hillary Clinton in key swing states, the Democratic Party and Mrs. Clinton should be reverberating with fear. There is no excuse for the Democratic Party letting radicalized Republicans steal equality and democracy right out from under them by such poorly performing opposition. Incumbent Republicans have failed to perform, and their presidential candidate is unfit for office. That should be patently clear to most Americans, but it is not. Why?


  • Mrs. Clinton needs to connect with most voters in swing states. She needs boots-on-the-ground with surrogate help. 


  • Mrs. Clinton and the Democratic Party need to punch the lights out in the Trump campaign with no-nonsense blows that knock him out on merit and for his lack thereof.


  • The Democratic Party needs to demonstrate less disarray than Republicans. Now, the Republicans are clearly having a civil war, while Democrats are hiding out and sleeping somewhere.


Part of the problem stems from Hillary's apparently trying to slide into office under the radar.

"FLORIDA, OHIO, NORTH CAROLINA REMAIN CLOSE CONTESTS - National polls have shown Hillary Clinton’s lead over Donald Trump eroding slightly in the first week of September, and now it looks like a trio of crucial swing states might be following suit. 
Florida - A Quinnipiac poll released Thursday found Clinton and Trump tied at 47-47 in a two-way race, and 43-43 in a four-way contest, with Libertarian Gary Johnson getting 8 percent and Green Party candidate Jill Stein taking 2 percent. Most of the August polls in the state showed Clinton leading, at times by substantial margins, but Quinnipiac is the second since the beginning of September to indicate that lead might be narrowing. The HuffPost Pollster average has Clinton up by 3.5 points, but expect that to close in if more polls show a tighter race."

Stay awake and lead.
