Reply #17: She didn't have the money to buy caucuses.

Obviously you are correct. Dean had this same exact problem. By losing caucuses as the "odd guy out" (and other issues), and not buying caucuses (by paying staffers on the ground to create this aura of likeablity), he lost.

Obama won the caucus states because he spent $20 million on staffers, on the ground. Hillary spent $5 million on one staffer at HQ. It was a mistake of epic proportions.

Had she simply brought the caucuses like Obama did we would not be having this discussion and the point would be moot.
