2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Just a thought and requesting input from all sides. [View all]
It is no secret that Hillary Clinton has a high unfavorability number. My question is, and I ask this respectfully, could the actions of her supporters (media, corporations, voters, super delegates, etc) be causing some of her unfavorable numbers to increase?
In other words, how much of her negatives are related to her and not to her support group?

Doubt it. Individual people, voters and delegates at least, wouldn't be denting too much

More than likely the actions of BS supporters are helping increase her negative. Think SS. nt

I stared off this cycle more accepting of Hillary than most Bernie voters are and now I do not care

2013 is 5 years removed from the 2008 primary. You're thinking of during and after her term at State

It's the sexism, stupid. (A paraphrase of the famous quote, not an insult.)

No. Her unfavorability is due to having been caught in a pattern of dishonesty, cover up, blame
