Dubunking Conventional Wisdom: Volume 1

The Democratic Primary is now only about personality

Wrong!

It's not about race or gender, either. Nor is it about minor policy disagreements. To be real, the general won't be about minor or even major policy disagreements either. Status quo is still the goal. For both parties. They are the very definition of status quo. But that aside...

It's about strategy.

Clinton Strategy:

Big states. Democratic strongholds. Micro polls.
Country's Mood: Angry, center-right.

Obama Strategy:

All states. Every voter. Big message.
Country's mood: Hopeful, center-left.
