Clinton: 'That was my last race'

33. That's an interesting perspective.

I'm not sure I agree, but it's an interesting way to look at it.

I don't know what's involved in the analytics, but whatever analytics her team did on this one kind of failed her, as she lost something that was about as close to a sure win as things ever get in politics. So if she did run again, I'd say she'd better throw out the old model anyway.

But also, in another thread, people are saying Hillary is great for giving this stuff to the DNC, and Bernie is bad for not doing the same. Your analysis is that Hillary would not have done it if she had any eyes toward possibly running again. In which case, she'd be just as "bad" as Bernie. That is, if we accept your premise that it would be stupid to turn this stuff over if you might run again, and we also accept that Bernie has not ruled out running again, then it sounds like Bernie would be stupid to do the same as Hillary did, right? Yet he is getting pilloried by some people for not doing it.
