But one of her problems is that she's such a policy wonk that her discussing her ideas often comes across as a laundry list of policy proposals, which I gather leaves a lot of people cold, rather than an overarching narrative in which voters can place themselves. She has a bad habit in her public appearances of seeming to speak at her audience rather than to and with them.

Indeed, she has the integrity of Nixon and the charm of Gore.

No doubt. I think this is Hillary's big opportunity -- let him run his mouth and wait for the inevitable bigoted statement/idiotic claim to come out. Trump will probably be good for two a week, y'know? If she can refocus the media onto those, she'll see her numbers rise again.

He's already given her a big opportunity today, with his statement to the Russian government that he hopes they've hacked Clinton's State Department emails, so we can see the deleted messages (I'm paraphrasing here).

Of course, she's the last person who can make hay with that one, which is a shame because it's shockingly stupid and practically begs for a public smack-down. I can only imagine the alarm and disbelief that must be rippling through the intelligence community right now. Perhaps Obama will address that remark tonight.

I'm racking my brain to see if I can remember another presidential race in which both candidates were their own worst enemies. This campaign season has been unbelievable, and it just gets worse.
