Bill and Barack are a Couple Again!
The tag team formed by the 44th President Barack Obama and the 42nd, Bill Clinton, is back in service. Had it ever stopped? Obama with his average ratings — the last CBS/The Post poll placed his voter support at 46 percent, equal to Mitt Romney's — and somewhat anemic fundraising, called for the husband of his secretary of state to provide a shoulder. With his phenomenal address book of donors and friends, Clinton will pep up the collection. Politico also reports that his intervention is built on the anti-Romney strategy and his collaboration with Obama’s right-hand men: David Axelrod and David Plouffe. Is Bill the new spin doctor?
The recent period has somewhat undermined the image of Obama. The permanent attacks from the Republican primary and the national debate on the increasing price of fuel, the still-uncertain economy and the picking up of the debate over healthcare have generated negative media coverage of Obama, according to the study from the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism dedicated to the media. [Obama's] weak voice, the need to turbo-boost the financial plan and a strategic re-adjustment have propelled Clinton's return as a strategist and spin doctor. On several occasions already he came to lend a hand, such as after the mid-term elections. What is he intervening with this time?
Kicking Off the Fundraising
Bill Clinton has the fullest book of Democratic donors in the U.S. Obama, who is late on his objectives, needs it. We are talking about less than $200 million raised so far. The astronomical target figure of $1 billion is now a mirage. The two presidents will initiate their collaboration with a grand event on April 29 in Virginia at the home of Terry McAuliffe, who was already a large donor to Hillary Clinton’s 2008 campaign. Two other grand evenings have been planned for New York's Wall Street and in Los Angeles.
Failed Anti-Romney Strategy
His start-up campaign against Mitt Romney aside, Obama still hasn't established clear leadership. This is where his mediocre voter support score comes from, which is now equal to Romney's with 46 percent; in the last poll Obama was still ahead of him at 49 percent to 44 percent. Bill Clinton has met Obama’s strategists, Axelrod and Plouffe, to develop the line of attack. From here, Obama’s campaign confronts Romney on his lack of conviction and his to-ing and fro-ing between “ideologies,” which allow him to adapt to his public. Now he will be restricted by his own definition of himself: A strict conservative, a severe conservative. The Democrats are also avoiding a return toward the center and the independents. And it’s Clinton, determined to save Camp Bill, who advised this strategy/trick.
