Everything is a bit of a stretch. She was certainly wrong about how she ran her campaign. Poisoning the well in the primary worked out so fucking well for her. It was her turn, she earned it. No reason to convince the voters to show up by campaigning, or creating a platform people were excited about. Just say how bad Bernie is, then how bad trump is a few times and hide.
My point is that she didn’t poison the well so much as she crushed Bernie in the Primary.
She also won the general by 3 million votes but I was specifically talking about how bad she beat Sanders.
I find it very strange you can dislike how she can win the general by 3 million votes and lose due to the EC, but also you think it’s fucked up she got the nom while also winning the primary by 3 million votes.
Let me just rehash every statement she made disparaging Bernie and Trump supporters. Oh wait, there’s no point in arguing with any of you DNC knob gobblers. So, I won’t.
Trump supporters are human garbage and her being right about it is what the article youre commenting under is literally about.
If you don’t think Sanders supporters treated Hillary, her supporters, and the Democrat party like shit… All I can say is give this thread a skim. They’re still doing it.
Yeah, the DNC clearing the field for her looks really bad in hindsight. A lot would be different if Biden had run in 2016 when the whole Bidenbro phenomenon was really popular.
Agreed. Biden running would of in itself made me feel 100x better about the primary process. She was clearly anointed by the DNC before the primary even started. They couldn’t even at least pretend we had a choice…
Right, but in the end she was going to get the votes anyway. Bernie couldn’t perform as well in the South which is a major voting block. Bernie did a great job of attracting young and white male voters. He didn’t pull the number of black voters and white women to overcome Clinton’s lead.

Major voting bloc in what, the primaries? Why is that even relevant? Democrats don’t win in the South. That sucks if you’re a Dem voter in the South but basing who the candidate is going to be in a national election on winning some primaries in states that won’t go blue in that election is pointless. The South is a lost cause. There’s no reason to care what they think about the Democratic nominee.

“Poisoning the well” aka “winning by 3 million votes”
I don’t like how the system works either, but that doesn’t change it or invalidate her loss.

I say this as a Warren voter.
