(10,578 posts)People said she campaigned in states that were too hard for Democrats to win. Arizona and Georgia should have been conceded, we were told, even if she was leading in the polls. She should have given up on Ohio and Iowa sooner, they said. People even suggested the North Carolina, a state were she had consistently led in the polls, throughout the race, was not a place that should have gotten as much focus as it did.
Perhaps she should have scheduled some rallies in Wisconsin, but when you are way up in the polls you generally go to other states. And she did spend an enormous amount of advertising money there. Also, she did have a ground game in WI and MN. They knocked on countless doors, and made an enormous number of phone calls. I admit that I don't know what the situation was with lawn signs and bumper stickers in MN, but perhaps that is an area that could have used some improvement.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
