MEMORANDUM 
To: (redacted) 
From: S. Schmidt 
Date: May 15, 2008 
Subject: Clinton Strategy

According to both internal polling and exit polls by independent news
organizations, the Democratic Party is becoming increasingly polarized along certain segments of its base. The recent result in West Virginia, while generally unsurprising and definitely unlikely to cause any real shift in the race, highlights the growing bitterness between certain supporters of Clinton and the Obama camp in general. This unique situation has created an opening that could help depress the turnout of key Democratic demographics in November.

The specific group we are targeting is a cross-section of white, female voters over the age of 40. Internal polling reveals that this group is the most likely to support John McCain after Obama wins the nomination. However, we expect Obama's numbers to improve following Clinton's drop. Our job is to make sure that number stays as low as possible.

Our limited financial resources and the media's attention on the Democratic race, however, prevent us from reaching this group. Our aim is to point out specific issues that we believe resonate well:

1. Sen. Obama's connection to Rev. Wright 
2. His inexperience 
3. His links to the corrupt Chicago political machine

However, we cannot fully achieve this goal without a greater commitment on
the part of McCain's fundraisers and our various media partners. In lieu of that, we have developed a number of inexpensive ways to reach this audience.

We have already worked to reinforce the Clinton campaign's narrative about the unfair treatment that some networks, specifically MSNBC, have given her camp. We are also planning to unroll a new campaign to highlight Obama's experience deficit.

Simultaneously, our team has been testing new lines of attack through independent pro-Clinton communities on the Internet. Our hope is that our message here will spread by word-of-mouth. Our local community organizing has also been successful. We have organized dozens of "meet-ups" across the country for Clinton supporters, and we have used that time to stress the importance of punishing the DNC for choosing the undemocratically selected far-left Obama. At the moment, this is nothing more than a headache for the Obama campaign.

With a greater commitment on your part, I hope to see it metastasize into something much more.

It is interesting to look at alll the polling that has happened so far - Clinton and Obama seem to poll all over the place between arounfd 43/44 to 52/53; in poll after poll (even including Rasmussen with its slight GOP bias) McCain kinda hits a ceiling of 44/45 - this is with the Democratic primary race in full swing with the two candidates literally tearing into each other !!

Chuck, have you noticed this - does this mean that right now McCain has hit his ceiling of 44/45, i.e is the ceiling a permanent one for McCain ?

LLM, Clanton, AL — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 18:33:42 GMT

Here is a serious question for the MSNBC team. I would love for you to address this as I have been pondering it for weeks.

1 - Exactly HOW has Obama 'dissed' or disrespected HRC? -- as her supporters claim

2 - What are specific examples of the media discriminating against HRC and specifically because she is a woman?

2 - Are there specific examples of sexism (other than the nutcracker and sign "iron my shirts" at one rally)? Frankly, there are many products in stores that degrade women and no one screaming about them before the nutcrackers apppeared (not that they should be tolerated, but ...). I don't hear her campaign or supporters decrying the "Obama - kill whitey" bumper stickers or other racist items.

As a 60 year old white woman from Park Ridge Illinois, I am of the same generation as HRC ... and I just don't get it. I watch news channels all day long as I work from home and, again, I just can't comprehend why her supporters are so upset. I understand being disappointed, but to feel they were "robbed" and the nomination was stolen or denied to HRC ... where does that thinking come from? What are the justifications for those claims?

I do feel HRC and her campaign have not been responsible in managing their supporters' expectations. HRC has had VERY little chance of obtaining the nomination for weeks. It was, to some degree, irresponsible to lead supporters to believe that the seating of the FL and MI delegations would close the gap in delegates. Her senior advisors helped write the rules they were fighting and fully understood that, at best, each delegate's vote would be worth 50% ... AND to create hysteria over 4 delegates is just plain crazy. One wonders where she would stand if her circumstances with Obama were reversed.

Okay, I'll get off my soap box. I would seriously like MSNBC commentators to consider the questions posed above. I have not seen ANY SIGNIFICANT level of sexism, and certainly have not seen HRC disrespected by Obama. On the other hand, HRC has been dismissive of Obama the entire campaign, and often down right disrespectful. She has made some hateful statements about and toward him.

Certainly there has been some sexism in this campaign and some racism. In my view, more of the latter than the former. Any rational person knows that racism has been more oppressive and limiting in this country than has sexism. While women may not have had the same opportunities as men, we have not been oppressed and excluded to the degree black Americans were. If you look at statistics across our society today, in many ways black women even fare better than black men.

The claims that the media have been trying to push her out because she is a woman is irresponsible. Again, if the shoe was on the other foot and she had won 11 straight victories, there would have been a HUGE cry for Obama to get out of the race. In my view, she has been given more opportunities (and benefit of the doubt) than any other candidate would have been given purely because of her standing in the party...and she has earned that...but to claim she is the victim if sexism because others are wondering when she will get out of the race knowing she obviously can't win the nomination given the delegate mate, is simply silly.

I do not understand why the media is allowing the Clintons to rewrite the script of this campaign by injecting that it was tainted or lost due to sexism. I must admit that I am a little in awe of the Clinton communications team. They have the media on the run, fearful of clear objective reporting for fear of being accused of treating HRC unfairly. I find it VERY interesting. The Clinton's communication team is definitely better, more aggressive, more fearless than Obama's. That will need to change if he plans to win in the fall.

Just in case you are wondering...this 60 year old white woman started this campaign neutral (but wanting HRC to win me over); as the campaign progressed HRC totally turned me off and I am now leaning to Obama. We'll see if he can win.

In all this time McCain was chosen to be the Repub.
Nominee, he has failed his people by not being the

As a fellow Democrat, I urge all Democrats stand

Anyone who knows martial art knows that, while it may appear to the politically challenged that Obama"limped" across the line, by intent and intuition, Obama rather coasted across the line.

There has been no need for weeks for him to spend the money and energy rebutting and responding. He hardly contested the states he lost, rather offering them the courtesy of a visit or two and some ads, he graciously conceded these states to a floundering opponent.

This is his style. No screaming, finagling, no desperation. In boxing, you pummel your weakened opponent until you either kill her/him or the ref breaks it up (hey Harold!). In judo, et al, you let a worthy opponent wear her/himself out and then ever so gently, put them out of their misery.

Heavenly Outstanding - now we Democrats have some healing to do and a caused to pursue. All Hillary and Barack supporters must unite. Set aside our personal agendas, prejudices and collaborate on the agenda of change and a better America for us all.

John McCain offers only the same and we all know that - we can’t afford the same - not anymore, after almost 8 years of the GOP and still currently each day gets more and more stressful and difficult for us Americans. The Bush administration will do nothing else this year beside try to bleed us for all the money they can and use part of it to help try to get John McCain elected so they can continue to bleed us for our money.

As, they make excuses and blame other so that they can continue to have their "market partner" rise oil prices so they can continue their greed.

We need them out...our livelihood depends on it - they care nothing about the average American. We are their work-abies.

The GOP is running this country like a cooperation. The American citizen to them are employees...they monopolizes the markets - causes prices to raise and U.S. to work harder so we can give them more money. There is no more competition -they control the market.

We need Barack Obama and the Democratic Party to step in and sit guidelines that protect U.S. We need competition again so the market can be fair and not controlled. We need a Government that will do what it was designed to do govern its people, by the will of its people. Not, use its people for the will of the government.

The Bush/Cheney administration and GOP has basically turn our Democracy in a form of a dictatorship with a communistic flavor of Government - they don't care about what we need or want anymore...they want us to do what they want and that's not the way it should work.

They have had us working for them for the past 7 years. Finally we have a chance for the government to start working for U.S. Let's not blow it

2.) How the media has discriminated against Senator Clinton because of her gender ... when our beloved Chris Matthews said on national TV that the reason that she is the senator from NY is because her husband fooled around. (And for anyone who watches MSNBC - they have been pro-Obama since Iowa - period).

3.) Specific examples of sexism ... the cleavage, the clothes, the cackle, the cry, and on and on and on - and just the simple fact that the media refers to Senator Clinton by her first name rather than as a senator.
