Obama campaign machine about to jump into high gear to help Hillary Clinton get elected.

Courtesy of TPM:  

The vaunted data-driven machine that twice got President Barack Obama elected is revving up to help elect Hillary Clinton, as Democrats look to recreate the tactical advantage they used against Republicans in 2008 and 2012. 

With Obama's popularity rebounding, Democrats have been eagerly awaiting the president's return to campaigning, and he'll hold his debut event for her Tuesday in North Carolina. Yet campaign officials say just as critical to her success could be an Obama political operation that remains potent four years after his re-election, including deep troves of voter and donor information, and a corps of trained field staffers and volunteers that Clinton's campaign is now co-opting. 

The crown jewel of Obama's machine, an email list of supporters that included 20 million addresses in 2012, is now fully available to Clinton.

Well this is great news since clearly President Obama's campaign team knows how to win presidential elections.

It should also serve as yet another indication that Hillary Clinton is not going to face any legal repercussions from the FBI probe into her private server.

Simply put there is NO WAY that President Obama would put all of these resources at her disposal if he thought there was even the slimmest of possibilities that she would face indictment.

Which is something by the way that the Libertarian presidential candidate also agrees with.

    Angry diatribes and links to right wing sites is all they have. They believe the lies (because they want to believe) they have been told for years. Unfortunately, there are a lot of these fools. Trump counts on these uneducated and foolish folks for votes.

      Considering whom he picked for VP, it was a reference from a movie I used early on to describe Sarah. The best lines from "Arthur" Sir John Gielgud says "I'd have to go to a bowling alley to meet a woman of your stature". It's early on in this clip:

      I agree with you if you definition of a "progressive" includes being willing to cut off your nose to spite your face. Some progressives won't compromise. Others will. Unless the definition of a progressive includes never compromising.

      Rather than justifying your magical thinking with more bullshit, try doing the electoral math for each state. Trump will be what he fears most come election night - a big fat loser. And if he figures those facts out before Election Day, he'll quit, just like his little puppet, Sarah Palin.

      His aim shouldn't be to be ahead nationally. His aim should be to be ahead in enough electoral states to win the electoral college. That's a much higher bar for him (much higher than being ahead nationally, and much higher than the bar for Hillary - she/Dems has more paths to victory than Repubs).

    Back on topic. The reason that Obama won the Democratic nomination in 2008 is that he had a far superior ground campaign. I had the opportunity to see it in action, as well as Hillary's poor effort in New York State back then. I used to run union organizing campaigns and envied Obama's effort. As much as I liked them both, I knew that Obama would win because of his well-organized campaign. The fact that he is turning over the information gathered and his team is a huge help for Hillary's campaign. When it all breaks down, the victory goes to the candidate who can get the voters out to the polls.

      Of course he very likable, but he was also a Black man running for president. I thought it would never happen in the US. The combination of a great candidate and a superior campaign did it, but a great candidate (there have been many) cannot win without getting out his or her voters. Obama had that. Thank our stars that he did or we would be looking at President Palin (after McCain died under suspicious circumstances.)
