I assure you the takeaway at the DNC will be that Trump was such a bad candidate that it lulled the Clinton camp into a false sense of security you knew drat well he was a snake before you took him in

The Kingfish posted:Calling him a traveling salesman seems like a dismissive attack to me. Huey was a traveling salesman for a few years after highschool and he learned a lot about the character of different LA communities during that time. He had a genius for sales, but was also a brilliant and principled lawyer. It could definitely be read that way, but everything I've read about him has described his time as a traveling salesman as a benefit to his future career. He learned to work a crowd and connect with people, which I think really served him well later on. Especially relevant today given that we are soon to be ruled by the modern day equivalent of a traveling salesman. People can use it as an attack, but that would be pretty stupid imo

seriously, everyone read that politico article. what the gently caress http://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/michigan-hillary-clinton-trump-232547 Everybody could see Hillary Clinton was cooked in Iowa. So when, a week-and-a-half out, the Service Employees International Union started hearing anxiety out of Michigan, union officials decided to reroute their volunteers, giving a desperate team on the ground around Detroit some hope. They started prepping meals and organizing hotel rooms. SEIU — which had wanted to go to Michigan from the beginning, but been ordered not to — dialed Clinton’s top campaign aides to tell them about the new plan. According to several people familiar with the call, Brooklyn was furious. Turn that bus around, the Clinton team ordered SEIU. Those volunteers needed to stay in Iowa to fool Donald Trump into competing there, not drive to Michigan, where the Democrat’s models projected a 5-point win through the morning of Election Day. Michigan organizers were shocked. It was the latest case of Brooklyn ignoring on-the-ground intel and pleas for help in a race that they felt slipping away at the end.

The Clinton campaign thought they were so in the clear for winning that they could try a bunch of new experimental poo poo to make a sea change in electoral politics and mook and podesta would go down in history as Carville style masterminds. In addition to and besides this, they also ran a loving stupid campaign for idiots.

I only hope this leads to the 2020 campaigns to all have a large person in the planning room with a wooden spoon that bonks anyone who says 'we have this state on lock, don't worry' over the head.

We can accuse them of being Carville style masterminds, but Carville was the one who coined the phrase "it's the economy, stupid". This was a severe case of the Democrats refusing to listen to their own electoral success stories.

No one is claiming they WERE. Carville on election night was one of my faves, looking back, if only because he was probably one of the first dems to start saying 'haha yea man she's gonna lose this with these states going red'. Just like, perfect Carville style of 'yea this fuckin sucks but let's not pretend it's not happening.' We should have listened.

Lawn signs are pointless and do very little for you but you don't sell yard signs because yard signs work, you sell yard signs so, ya know, when some old lady in Flint calls you asking for one you can happily send over some campaign worker to bring her a sign and talk about how great it is she's helping out and ask if there's anything else she needs. Signs themselves are useless but they're incredibly powerful canvassing tools and lol @ the woman who's husband ran the most powerful ground game in modern elections not seeming to get that.

if lawn signs didn't do anything they wouldn't be valuable by acting as a display of ideological leaning, if you get enough people to display it, it normalizes it so tl;dr when an old lady asks for a lawn sign you drat well give her one
