Declaring he was tired of talking about Donald Trump, President Barack Obama urged Democrats on Monday not to grow too confident about their prospects in the 2016 election despite Hillary Clinton’s strong position in the race for the White House.
Obama, who is on a two-week vacation in Martha’s Vineyard, an island off the coast of Massachusetts, took a short break from his relaxation time to raise money for Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee he hopes will succeed him when he leaves office in January.
Clinton leads Trump in opinion polls, and the Republican nominee’s campaign has suffered following remarks he made denigrating the parents of a fallen Muslim American soldier and charging that Obama was the founder of the Islamic State militant group.
The president warned his party, however, to maintain a sense of urgency until the Nov. 8 election. “If we are not running scared until the day after the election, we are going to be making a grave mistake,” Obama told some 60 donors who contributed $10,000 each to attend the fundraiser at a private home on the island.
One Name:
Scott Brown. Scott Brown. Scott Brown. Fucking Scott Brown.
I will be posting his name as a warning until Hillary smokes Trump in the debates or until election day, whichever comes first.
Only a fool thinks that
any election is "in the bag".
Her numbers have been trending DOWN since the "fretful concern-troll" POTUS made his comments.
Cocky self-assuredness can cost us in voter turnout. The message should be KEEP FIGHTING AS IF YOU"RE LOSING !!
