Fair point. She lost because the electoral college as currently constructed us stupid. Still, if she splits the moderate vote instead of loses it by 6% she crushes him.

I don't think you got my point. A lot of people just didn't prioritize voting because Trump seemed to be a complete joke who had no chance of winning.

Among moderates, those who flipped the coin and picked "Trump" were more likely to show up than moderates whose coin landed on "Clinton" because they figured she didn't need their vote.

True, I misspoke. It wasn’t the point you were trying to make, but it was a point you inadvertently made. She won the popular vote easily. If she doesn’t lose the moderates by 6% she wins the WH easily.

I take no issue with that. But again, she lost the moderates who did vote by about 6%. To the most flawed candidate you can imagine.

I think part of it was swing voter  Democrats didn't like Hillary to begin with. Then she didn't handle the personal attacks well, and her counter attacks backfired.

This was a little bit surprising because Bill Clinton was so skilled at that game.

Al Gore was a dud at dirty politics too.

I suspect Harris and Tim can handle themselves.

Pretty accurate IMO.

Tempo still doesn't understand that the Democratic is too busy catering to professors and lawyers which is why it doesn't appeal
to people in West Virginia who are no longer Democrats

Someone doesn’t understand the “southern strategy” of the GOP post Eisenhower.

Yes, the poor people in West Virginia are actually really big into student loan forgiveness.

WV went straight Republican 40 years before student loan forgiveness was a thing.

Trump absolutely hates the people that love him. It's so weird.

He talks about doing things that would directly hurt them, and they're like "YEAH!"

Maybe he's a jedi or some shit. It's just so weird.

They are just into people who went to college paying a lot of taxes and subsidizing West Virginia.

I actually talked to a gal who is from West Virginia. She was proud that she was going on a date with a coal miner. That's actually a big status there.

If you have a job that pays higher than minimum wage, you can destroy pussy there. It's crazy.
