you gotta remember that for the white working class vote, obama portrayed himself in 2012 as saving the auto industry (i.e. thousands of jobs in the rust belt) vs. a chariticure of gordan geeko / i.e. economic populism vs a technocrat

imagine if hillary had invested in ads like this one from the steelworkers instead of "Trump's crazy lol" *ukalele & glockenspiel music*

remember when hillary attacked bernie for trying to shut down auto factories (when he wanted to bail them out, but not bail out wall st in the same bill)

3rd wave seems p divided between people who just wanna do what they want at the expense of others, and people who think hey maybe having sex with more than one person is ok. the first seems like a vocal minority.

50 state is more about supporting local elections so you have grassroots support and take state legislatures than trying to grab every state in a pres run.

I wish we had seen Margaret Thatcher-style Hillary and seen her get up and have a frank discussion about how much she loathes the GOP and is going to personally destroy their party once and for all.

yeah i dont think she is capable of running and winning, but i'd be cool if she tried to destroy them in spite with the rest of her life

Venom Snake -- I posted this ages ago but I really really want as close to a definitive answer as possible: Why did Hillary pick Tim Kaine? Of all people? I get that he's a nice guy but... why? Just why? It was so safe and establishment and loving why?

he stepped down for dws and appeases the wall street overlords and is from a swing state (but vps never actually do anything there)

none of which was super important

I think he would, but I think he's also trying his damnedest to set things up so he won't be. Trying to pull the party* back together and back on point, championing Ellison (rather than himself) as DNC chair, even if he's doing it all out of ambition it feels more like ambition for influence in the Senate (which I would feel really good about him getting) than for taking another stab at the big chair in 4-8 years.

___
*I notice that no one's shouting BUT HE'S NOT A DEMOCRAT these days. Good.

even if he's doing it for ambition, he could literally just reform the party and set the foundation for 30 years of elections and he'll be in the history books for a long drat time lol
