15. Neither

In 2008 she ran up against an exceptional candidate who had an exceptional strategy. It's hard to blame somebody for losing to Obama, especially with as close as the delegate count was.

In 2016 she had learned from her 2008 campaign and is beating Sanders by a much wider margin than Obama won with in 2008.
