That is a toughy.
Which state could the most popular politician in the entire country defeat one of the most unpopular politicians in the country? I mean, Sanders favorability is not even two percentage points higher than Hillary's unfavorability (Sanders 57% favorable, Clinton 55.3% unfavorable). That's a hopeless posit..., er, ... never mind. But don't let mere facts get in the way. This is Trump's America, we no longer have a need for facts.

Hillary was (and maybe still is) the most popular woman in the country.
Until she started running for President. Then the mud started flying (again). Polls like that don't mean anything when it comes to voting for President. Eichenwald from November. Berniewouldalost maybe in a blowout of biblical proportions. HTH. Cheers, Scott.

Keep repeating it. Eventually everyone will believe it.
Hillary won the nomination by winning the states no Democrat had a chance for in the general (and, of course, those "special" Super Delegates). With this weak showing (nearly losing to "an old Socialist Guy" when she had the entire machinery of the DNC backing her), she still didn't go to Wisconsin. What an idiot.
But, as Rand and to a lesser extent you hasten to point out, it's not her fault she lost the election. It's all because of those damned Berniecrats! We Lefties ruined her coronation and no one's ever going to forgive us for that.

She lost because of Comey (mostly). She beat Bernie.

Five Comeys shouldn't have mattered! Her opponent was Trump for $DEITY's sake!

A better candidate would have survived Comey.

Bernie wouldn't.
You don't get to be as old as him and still in politics without a shitload of embarrassment just waiting to be used against you.
Wasn't there a story about the RNC and their 500 page war book of "shit Bernie doesn't want mentioned"?

Also, too.
He replied, “Well, Stein, but—” I interrupted him and said, “You’re lucky it’s illegal for me to punch you in the face.” Then, after telling him to have sex with himself—but with a much cruder term—I turned and walked away. Yeah, I bet that really made him change his mind and vote for Hillary. It is just crazy she lost the election.

It's an opinion/news piece. He's a reporter, not an outreach guy for the Democrats.
