3. She hasn't launched the full fledged attack yet. Too many men and Indies think he's "moderate."

He continues to pass himself off as a "moderate good old boy who drives a pickup truck". Her team has not yet gone full court press attack mode on NAKED MAN yet. She is just starting to really start attacking his voting record. Plus he has incumbency on his side, which is always a plus. What she needs to do soon is get into full attack mode. Probably coming after labor day. She and her team MUST drive his negatives up by supergluing him to the LARGER REPUBLICAN AGENDA AND PARTY by attacking him relentlessly on his votes in the Senate which are at least 80% with the right wing and by running ads with him begging David Koch for money. In order to win, THEY MUST DRIVE UP HIS NEGATIVES and cut into more men and Indies. They also need to stress the need to have a Dem controlled Senate. They must do what John Kerry did effectively to Bill Weld when he beat Weld: they tied him to the large Republican Party and agenda.
