its worth looking at these polls which show it to be a close race, until they do a ticket matchup between McCain/Romney, Obama/Clinton, and each time, the margin for Obama with Hillary against McCain/romney is huge, compared to individual matchups. Of course the GOP has talking points. But its not right to assume they'd be very effective. Everyone in America knows the talking points against the Clintons and has for years now. But it tells you something when the ticket still polls extremely well vs. McCain/Romney.
