She advertised and had ground operations in all the battle ground states.

It is true that she didn't have rallies in Wisconsin--it is not true about MI and PA--but that is because she was up by double digits. When Trump finally thought he could win, because of the Comey intervention, the first thing he did was CANCEL an appearance in Wisconsin.

We didn't hear anything about her running a bad campaign during the race, which means you are now making the incredible argument that people were restrained in criticizing her.

She ran a very good campaign, the post-election media narrative notwithstanding. She lost because of James Comey's antics. If you eliminate Comey and Putin from the equation she would have destroyed Trump.

People label her a bad candidate because it brings personal happiness to them to tag her with that label. In reality, her campaign was never seen at the time as being a mistake-riddled disaster like McGovern or Dukakis.

Besides, if she was such a bad candidate then what does it say about Bernie Sanders that he couldn't beat her? Doesn't Bernie have to take any responsibility for his loss?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
