The Clintons come off as able to run winning campaigns in their sleep. Instills confidence for Nov.
Clinton gave a speech about Hillary "Needed to close 16 points in NH in two days and one night" which they did.

They have every possible move in this campaign planned out until election day and they have proven they know exactly what to do do close any kind of disadvantage among any kind of voter. It gives me further confidence we have a winner.

1. If you have the wrong horse in the race, no campaign team is going to
be able to take it across the finish line in the general election.

2. The Clintons come off as running a Republican style campaign
For a party that has spent the last 8 years bemoaning how dirty the Republicans were in both 2000 and 2004, should we nominate any Democrat who is as dirty as the Republicans?

7. oh, they're as dirty, all right.
They always just wipe it off on their surrogates so that they appear clean.

9. They turned around weeks of momentum while Hil was trashed in the MSM, Obama was coronated
Everybody knows what happened. Nothing short of a stunning comeback.

8. If I was a dem downticket, I wouldn't have much confidence in them
The Clintons don't have much of a record when it comes to helping the party. Admittedly, they seem pretty good at helping themselves.
