Time for Obama's kitchen sink
After endless negative campaigning by Senator Clinton's campaign, I think it's time for Obama to begin to openly discuss the many Clinton scandals.
I praise him for running a positive campaign to this point, but it is becoming painfully clear that Hillary wants to win regardless of the cost to her party.
Time to take off the gloves and fight fire with fire.

Nope. He can't do it. It is absolutely out of the question.

I was thinking the same thing. He should renew a call for her tax returns, but she gets a free pass on her way into Ohio, Tx, Vermont and Rhode Island tomorrow.
Perhaps he should pull what she does, the 11th hour surprises.
But he should raise the issues in an honest way, so that he continues to have the support of stalwarts like Richardson, Durbin and Kerry.
Many of us don't like what happened to our party during the other Clinton administration. The name "democrat" was demonized.

He should dissect that lifetime of experience statement.
He should highlight that the majority of her professional life was the 15 years she spent working for the Rose Law firm.
He should highlight the fact that she does not learn from mistakes which is why she voted for cluster bombs, Kyl-Lieberman, Iraq war, bankruptcy act, and the surge.
He should highlight that she never had security clearance while visiting those 82 countries, that she never had security clearance as a First Lady to sit in on PDB's, National Security meetings nor anything to do with foreign policy.
Obama needs to tear that 'lifetime of experience' to shreds, especially when it comes to foreign policy.
this is the only thing that voters believe she has that he doesn't.
He should hightlight that she has not faced any international crisis where she was a decision maker and that she has not been able to manage complex govenrment issues such as:
healthcare
getting us out of iraq
Obama needs to emphasize that while she is a wonk she lacks strategic planning skills. Her campaign is a classic blue print for that inability...she didn't plan to campaign pass Feb 5th and had no plan to do so, the same thing with how she voted to take the country to war without first demanding a exit plan and troop levels sufficient to secure the peace.,..the same thing happened with healthcare she had no plan to work with the members of her own party and it was a colossal mistake.
Obama must give concrete examples of her utter lack of judgment and inability to learn from past misktakes which is what folks beleive comes with experience...judgment.
Obama is enough of a visionary to do this. He may not have desired to do so, but he has to now because that is all she has going for her.
He has to rip her jugular out on this experience meme.
He has to firmly communicate that she is as 'inexperienced' as he is when it comes to foreign policy just as a secretary is no more experienced at strategic planning simply because she is her bosses shadow and sits in on meetings and conference calls as well as preparing administrative briefs,.
Her shadow years in the WH as First Lady do NOT constitute foreign policy experience nor a lifetime of experience that would make her better qualified presidential candidate.
