She doesn't like to be seen by too many people in public... Something about poll numbers dropping every time that happens.

She lacks any of the many New York accents.

I think, for Hillary, accents are a fashion thing, if you know what I'm saying.

14. Meanwhile, Bernie's been out of NYC so long, no one there actually uses the accent he does.

I guess 48 years away from the city is a long time.

it's ridiculous. Aren't we adults? Can't we read between the lines, even if you're a Hillary supporter.

She's scared to lose votes and doesn't see the point in a debate because it will only cost her.
Which is perfectly fine, makes sense. However, she can't say that I guess because then she would lose votes anyways
However it's getting kind of obvious. Just get it over and done with, she's a good debater no? The sooner the better I guess she could talk about Sanders taxes as a talking point. And him investing in corporations which is apparently a bad thing.

OH Yeah, Clinton is used to being invested by corporations. She must not get it.

It perfectly fine strategy for a game, but this is a democracy. It is part of a worrying lack of transparency by Clinton. As if we didn't have enough of that under the Bush administration.

It also suggests that she has no desire to get pushed further to the left. Is anyone around here NOT expecting her to lurch to the right if she gets the nomination?

11. She sees her well-laid plan crashing down around her

The FBI is on her tail.
Unresolved scandals coming back
to re-visit her.
If she can only hold on till sundown...
gotta... hold... on.
That, and she knows she
will be shredded in a debate with Bernie.
The gig is up.
