    1. Okay, let's think about Hillary Clinton's outreach to moderate Republicans. Good idea or not?https://twitter.com/ABCLiz/status/776586989164388352 …

        Yes, but not at the expense of progressives who would have campaigned for her and downticket Dems.

        2. To some degree, Clinton needs suburban upscale white Republicans, to make up for defection of downscale whites to Trump.

        3. The problem is this sort of outreach demoralizes her own base, especially Bernie Sanders loving young people, that she also needs.

        Dumb. She needs to excite her base to get them to turnout and vote for her. That's her problem right now. This doesn't help.

        Terrible idea. Pisses off Clinton/Johnson and Clinton/Stein swing voters, wins no Clinton/Trump swing voters.

        that’s what kills: it *should’ve* been a good idea, a unifying moment. instead it scared progs and young voters away? wtf

        @ABCLiz Stop! She has a history of working with reasonable Republicans and that is a very good thing. #gohigh
