After months spent attempting to discredit Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton's campaign is reportedly now trying to re-establish its own candidate as the center of its message. As Election Day approaches, "voters aren't going to be able to rattle off her bullet points," Democratic strategist Anita Dunn told The Washington Post. "We're at a point in the campaign where voters want to hear what candidates are going to do — not just what's wrong with your opponent, but why you."
While Clinton has maintained a slight lead in the polls, over half the country still views her unfavorably, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average.
