Agree- the polls show it as a big dent. bettyellen Sep 2017 #1
Considering how close the election actually was the "I will say no" answer doesn't seem to be... PoliticAverse Sep 2017 #2
Absolutely agree karynnj Sep 2017 #23
Yeah the "deplorable" comment was clearly a strategic mistake (which is why she walked it back) PoliticAverse Sep 2017 #24
The difference is that Comey dramatically overhauled an election that was looking like a big win. StevieM Sep 2017 #29
Yep. nt SunSeeker Sep 2017 #3
Hillary just can't turn the page Jersey Devil Sep 2017 #4
You're certainly welcome to do what YOU need to do. oasis Sep 2017 #9
I just don't think that dwelling on why Hillary lost can be at all productive Jersey Devil Sep 2017 #10
I'm willing to wait and see what, if anything, is accomplished oasis Sep 2017 #14
So exploring the effects of sexism and racism are not productive? ismnotwasm Sep 2017 #18
Comey has exactly what to do with racism and sexism? Jersey Devil Sep 2017 #22
Seems I've been observing a different reality: JHan Sep 2017 #27
What about holding Comey accountable? yallerdawg Sep 2017 #11
Point taken Jersey Devil Sep 2017 #13
Nothing that happened in this election should be allowed to repeat! yallerdawg Sep 2017 #17
"What about holding Comey accountable?" - by doing what? (He's already been fired). n/t PoliticAverse Sep 2017 #25
"Let's move on" is NOT holding Comey accountable. yallerdawg Sep 2017 #26
Well said. Comey is reprehensible. (eom) StevieM Sep 2017 #30
Many people believe that analysis of recent history is no real help LanternWaste Sep 2017 #21
The reasons for the loss are essential to moving forward. delisen Sep 2017 #33
Wrong. Justice Sep 2017 #36
Yes.. definitely a contributor....We can't ignore the media failure too... FarPoint Sep 2017 #5
I agree. It was like a punch in the gut when Comey's letter announcing the investigation came out. Hoyt Sep 2017 #6
It actually served no purpose either... FarPoint Sep 2017 #12
Speaking of terror attacks, I am convinced Kerry would have won in 2004 if a Bin Laden video Hoyt Sep 2017 #15
I would argue that it wasn't too close. Comey completely overhauled the race with his stunt. StevieM Sep 2017 #31
There's evidence. All repugnicant 'acquaintances' sprinkleeninow Sep 2017 #34
Strange she doesn't mention decades of anti-Hillary media attacks leftstreet Sep 2017 #7
She ranked them in the correct order... NurseJackie Sep 2017 #8
I disagree somewhat.... Raster Sep 2017 #16
Yes, Comey's attack worked so well because the media had set up her emails Johonny Sep 2017 #28
She was a brittle public figure Cosmocat Sep 2017 #37
I don't agree that Comey moved the needle "just enough." I think he moved it a whole lot. StevieM Sep 2017 #41
Matt Lauer is asking her this question? tavernier Sep 2017 #19
K&R Gothmog Sep 2017 #20
It's a ridiculous question because it sets up the implication that we are debating whether or not StevieM Sep 2017 #32
Thank you! eom sprinkleeninow Sep 2017 #35
It's both Cosmocat Sep 2017 #38
I think she got a lot of air in September and October. More than enough to win the race StevieM Sep 2017 #39
I agree as well that Hillary had a big enough lead to easily win until Comey's letter andym Sep 2017 #40
