The thought apparently was to highlight within an issue framework, not only the chaotic and contentious democratic contest, but to point out the insipid, petty and self-serving manner in which the debate has been conducted. The attack themes presumably were to be directed primarily at Mondale and Hart before the convention and at the nominee following the convention. The above described approach was discussed Thursday and Friday {5/31/84 & 6/1/84) during a meeting with myself, Ed Rollins, Lee Atwater and Jim Lake, and then myself and the Tuesday Team.

  • Administration of Barack Obama, 2014 Remarks at A
    Administration of Barack Obama, 2014 Remarks at a Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Dinner in Chicago, Illinois May 22, 2014 The President. First of all, to Fred and Dan, I'm so grateful for you guys hosting us here today. I'm trying to remember, was it 2 years ago or 3 years ago that I was here? Audience member. Two years ago. And you were here in—— The President. Well, I've been here a lot, I know. [Laughter] I meant most recently. I have abused Fred's hospitality for quite some time. But it is wonderful to be home now that is has warmed up. [Laughter] And it is wonderful to be with a lot of old friends. There are a couple other people I just want to acknowledge real quickly. Obviously, our Governor, Pat Quinn, is in the house. Please give him a big round of applause. Pat is doing a lot of hard stuff, and he's doing it the right way. And I'm very appreciative for all the efforts that he's making down in Springfield. We also have two of our finest public servants in the country. The first has the thankless job of being the chair of the Democratic senatorial reelection committee, and that is our outstanding Senator from Colorado, Michael Bennet. And the second guy is the person who, upon my election to the United States Senate, essentially taught me everything that he knew and kept me out of trouble and supported me every step of the way when I ran for President and has been a great friend and champion on behalf of working families not just in Illinois, but all across the country.

Click here for our weekly roundup of national blogs. Northeast On Tuesday this week, NH Labor News writes that reforms to the state budget of the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) are needed. They say that over the past thirteen years, the TANF has only increased 12 percent, despite child care and housing costs for TANF families rising at a much higher rate over the same period. RIPR says on Friday that it may well be time for Ocean State’s former governor, Lincoln Chafee to give up on his 2016 presidential ambitions, after what they describe as a ‘bumbling appearance’ during this week’s Democratic debate. They also comment that while some of Chafee’s critics have accused him of embarrassing Rhode Island, there are many other politicians from the state who have landed in jail or made the state a national laughing stock. In the Constitution State this week, My Left Nutmeg has the news that a recent poll has shown that Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy isn’t very popular; voters disapprove of the job he’s doing 58 to 32 percent.

  • Biden Is Only Leading Dem to Top Trump in Ohio, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Former V.P
    Peter A. Brown, Assistant Director (203) 535-6203 Rubenstein Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR RELEASE: JULY 25, 2019 BIDEN IS ONLY LEADING DEM TO TOP TRUMP IN OHIO, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; FORMER V.P. HAS BIG LEAD IN DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY Former Vice President Joseph Biden leads President Donald Trump 50 – 42 percent in the critical swing state of Ohio, the only leading Democratic candidate to top the Republican incumbent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. The other leading Democratic contenders each are locked in a dead heat with President Trump, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds: 46 percent for Trump to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders with 45 percent; Trump at 46 percent to Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 45 percent; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and California Sen. Kamala Harris; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg; 44 percent for Trump to 43 percent for New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker. Women, black voters and independent voters give Biden his lead in the matchup with Trump. Biden leads 53 – 40 percent among women, as men are split with 46 percent for Biden and 45 percent for Trump. White voters are divided, with 48 percent for Trump and 45 percent for Biden. Black voters go Democratic 84 – 8 percent. Independent voters go to Biden 55 – 32 percent. Republicans back Trump 86 – 10 percent as Biden leads 96 – 2 percent among Democrats. “Former Vice President Joseph Biden calls himself a blue-collar guy. With Ohio certainly a blue-collar state, it is no surprise he is the Democrat who runs best against President Donald Trump and is solidly ahead in the Democratic primary in the Buckeye State,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

First of all, your outstanding Governor is in the house, Bill Ritter. Where is Bill? There he is. Lieutenant Governor Barbara O'Brien is here. A great partner for this guy, Senator Mark Udall is in the house. Congressman Jared Polis is here. And an outstanding mayor, who I think actually might make a pretty good Governor, John Hickenlooper in the house. It is great to be back in Colorado. Audience member. We love you! The President. I love you back. [Laughter] I know this State is the training ground for a few Winter Olympians who are doing us so proud.

  • All Top Dems Beat Trump As Voters' Economic Outlook
    Mary Snow, Polling Analyst (203) 506-8202 Doug Schwartz, Director (203) 582-5201 FOR RELEASE: AUGUST 28, 2019 ALL TOP DEMS BEAT TRUMP AS VOTERS’ ECONOMIC OUTLOOK DIMS QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; DEM PRIMARY STAYS STABLE WITH BIDEN HOLDING THE LEAD If the 2020 presidential election were held today, 54 percent of registered voters say that they would vote for former Vice President Joe Biden, while only 38 percent would vote for President Trump. Matchups against other top Democrats show: • Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders topping Trump 53 – 39 percent; • Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren ahead of Trump 52 – 40 percent; • California Sen. Kamala Harris beating Trump 51 – 40 percent; • South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg leading with 49 percent to Trump’s 40 percent. Looking at all of the matchups, President Trump is stuck between 38 and 40 percent of the vote. These low numbers may partly be explained by a lack of support among white women, a key voting bloc that voted for Trump in the 2016 election. Today, white women go for the Democratic candidate by double digits in every scenario. Though it is a long 14 months until Election Day, Trump’s vulnerability among this important voting group does not bode well for him. “In hypothetical matchups between President Trump and the top five Democratic presidential candidates, one key number is 40,” said Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Mary Snow. “It’s the ceiling of support for Trump, no matter the candidate. It hovers close to his job approval rating, which has stayed in a tight range since being elected.” Voters say 56 – 38 percent that they disapprove of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president, compared to the 54 – 40 percent disapproval he received a month ago.
