Hillary Rodham Clinton has left no doubt about the type of campaign she expects to run with fellow Democrats in 2016.

“I want to be onstage with you, and I want you onstage with me,” the Democratic presidential front-runner told senators during a recent visit to the Capitol.

The former secretary of state conveyed that she intends to run a highly coordinated campaign with congressional Democrats, particularly in seven states with key Senate races that are also battlegrounds in the presidential campaign.

It's good to be a Democrat!

The immediate goal is to run campaigns in key states — such as Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida and Wisconsin — where Clinton and Democratic candidates can draft off of one another in a manner that could deliver her the presidency along with a Democratic majority in the Senate.
