I supported Hillary the whole way, but even I clinched my jaw with some of her missteps like the email response, not releasing her speech transcripts and a number of other things she seemed to do wrong. But people that are jumping to alert on other DU members that point out that Hillary was unfairly attacked, in some cases by those claiming to be progressive was also detrimental and contributed to the current state of political affairs.
