The game plan that would get Democrats a victory is a campaign that has its main focus on economic issues, running as a economic populist, while at the same time, keeping the focus on economic issues, while at the same time de push social issues that have hurt Democrats in states such as MO and WVA, and have the potential to sink Democrats in WI and IA.
The perfect canidate for Democrats, lets call him Canidate X. He would not be from the Midwest, he would have a long history with private industry unions. He would not be known for his stands on economic rather than social issues, on social issues he would be somwhat liberal, but at the same time, not far left and he would if need be avoid these issues in the general election. He would not have a whiff of elitisim about him, and on military issues, he would be cautious, but not a "peace & justice" type, and his record would be as such.
Such a canidate would put Bush on the defensive in states like WVA, MO and OH and AR. Now who comes closest to Canidate X?
