They are probably hoping to have a repeat of 2014 where the Dems are afraid to use Pres Obama's coattails.

I don't understand why they should think running against a man who already smacked them twice would be a winning strategy. I think too that, in their enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton, some of the Dems around here forget that Mr Obama was preferred over her as well.
