HRC mistakes in 2016 - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

An interesting article that argues that the HRC campaign did not make sure it kept its own Blue States and went with the wrong message.   This blog did hear that Bill Clinton suggested going with the economic message and the need to support blue collar workers, the old Reagan Democrats, but instead the campaign went with the negative attacks on the Donald.    As to to the first mistake, the article points out that the HRC campaign was trying to turn red States Blue, while not looking after States that Trump would need to win.   As the article points out HRC did not even visit Wisconsin, it alright having a firewall, but as with PC firewalls you have to update them, in political terms, spend money and make sure your local game is up for a tough fight.    This blog recalls that Bill Clinton told his VP, Al Gore to look after his home State, the VP did not and lost that State, and thus his chance at the Presidency.   Well on to the 2018 Mid Terms.
