Jonathan Martin: Hillary’s a ‘Major Liability’ and Is Not Doing Red State Dems Any Favors with Media Appearances
EXCERPT:
MARTIN: “I will say, having just come back from North Dakota where Hillary Clinton clocked in about 27 percent of the vote in 2016, she isn’t doing any favors for red state Democrats who are on the ballot less than a month from now by doing these appearances. I can tell you that she is still a major liability for Democrats in those states. Kevin Kramer, who is facing Senator Heitkamp, told me directly last week when I talked to him, he said, 'I will pay for Hillary Clinton, for her to charter a flight and come into this state and campaign for Heitkamp.' They are still using her as a weapon against Democrats. There is an ad on the air in North Dakota that basically merges their names, Heidi and Hillary. So obviously she has strong feelings, but politically, if you talk to Democratic strategists and red state Democrats, they do not want to see her between now and the election."
