McCain is also to blame for Obama and somehow that's not how conservatives think. Seriously, there's no around this this is misogyny in it's purest form. I'm saying this as somebody who originally wanted Bernie to be the nominee.

Given the fact that our current president is a madman obsessed with constantly retelling the story of his election win I don't really see Hillary publishing a book that will likely be ripe with snippets that conservatives will use about her side of the story. It really isn't necessary right now.
There have been a lot of threads people telling her to essentially stay wondering in the woods just because she's going to a college commencement or seeing a ply or some shit. Which is dumb. She can do what she wants
But please. No more election talk. Her last interview where she came out and blasted Comey and everyone else was not helpful at all. Obama isn't feeling a need to do that. He's been living life with the occasional classy statement. He hasn't come out and said anything dumb or given Conservatives anything to yap about.
Maybe if Trump is out of office by the time the book comes out it'll be ok.

He won't be so it probably isnt

Much like the Democrats, it seems like Clinton sucks at messaging. That title is boring as fuck

The people who were offended by that weren't going to vote for her regardless.

I don't recall this much seething anger towards Al Gore or John Kerry.
Just saying.
Just saying.
Someone else might have won because they wouldn't have had decades of misogynist attacks against them going back to before a lot of people posting on this forum were even born. She didn't happen, because she didn't do that shit to herself.
Thinking anybody else could have won though is where people like you are dead wrong. If anybody else could have won then why didn't anybody else win against him in the Republican primary? Trump was something different in politics and no one had an answer to it. To think you do, and the answer is "literally anyone" is just ridiculously insulting and ignorant of what happened.

Damn, did you break your ankle rushing into this thread to make a fool out of yourself?
The shit you guys are posting in this thread is making me sick. Jesus. You guys really have no shame in being so overtly misogynistic in your treatment of this women. Fox News won.

Bunch of fucking idiots happened..
No. It's a pretty measured and fairly accurate representation of Clinton's behavior over the course of the election.
It doesn't even begin to hint at her larger failures.
I'm aware of the popular vote results. The election was still a repudiation.

They didn't lose to Trump.
If she was she would've won the election.

Gender! How much more obvious can this get?! I mean I'm not even a feminist, it's just so obvious it's INSANE!

It is mercifully in between election cycles, and 2019 would be a little worse since primary campaigns are underway.
Sometimes these things benefit from being "fresh" as a kind of contemporaneous record. You lose the hindsight and historical analysis but you gain a more accurate depiction of the moment.
Instead of attacking the racist, xenophobic, sexist pig completely unfit for office she should have hired two men to talk for her instead. Yup...

Who here is a conservative though? Did she face misogyny? Obviously. That doesn't alleviate her from many missteps that she made. Also, all that email BS was of her own doing. She is ultimately responsible for all of this. This is the accountability required for someone who is worthy of being President. Well, before Trump came around anyway.
Treating a woman the same way I would treat a man who gave us President Trump. With contempt.

I meen tbf, Trump is far worse than Bush. Plus the internet was nowhere near as prevalent back then as it is today.

Who is not Trump.
She was never a strong candidate, but was at least a sure fire slamdunk against that buffoon Trump, right? A candidate that literally undermined himself by saying dumb ignorant shit every 24 hours is no threat at all.
Oops.
The Democrats entirely misjudged large swaths of the population and were undeservedly overconfident and now we all are paying for it.

Bush was even worse. Sure Trump is an idiot, but just count the lost lives that Bush is responsible for. AND destroyed economy...
No, it's her fault because Trump was very beatable and she ran a poor, lazy campaign.
Obama was a great candidate who ran a great campaign. McCain had an uphill climb. Clinton was handed the worst presidential candidate in the last 100 years as an opponent and still managed to fuck it up.

Let's just ban endless primary/general election threads.
Because Trump never patronized, insulted, or ignored anyone?
Just what "insult" from her has you so upset?
They didn't lose to an orange sack of shit. At least Bush is a human, Trump is like the cockroach monster from Men In Black.
If the next democrat (male or female) runs against Trump, makes the same mistakes as Clinton and loses, they'll get the same level of ire from me, I don't care what colour or gender they are.

My point is, they knew Trump was going after the rust belt. Did she listen? Nope.

Hillary could have done a better job with the campaign, obviously.
However, Trump is president because we as a country royally screwed this up.

You have failed to explain what being a woman has to do with it. People are frustrated with Trump and she is the easiest target.
Also you don't know many conservatives if you think they don't blame McCain for Obama. (It also became less noticeable when Romney also lost to Obama)
This whitewashing of Bush's legacy will never fail to amaze me. Trump is an incompetent man baby and very well could end up worse than Bush. Right now, though, he is not. Bush has a lot more blood on his hands and we shouldn't ignore that.
I mean, didn't all of us? Pretty much everyone thought she had it in the bag, especially here.
Oh, please.
Donald Trump patronized Americans, he insulted them, and he ignored them.
Americans returned the favor by voting him into the White House.

I'm still not sure how blaming her and not Trump voters makes any sense.
It's like if I was competing in a sprint against Usain Bolt, and right before the starting pistol goes off, a bunch of members from the audience rush him and start beating him with baseball bats. Then I win and Neogaf is all "HOW COULD USAIN LET THIS HAPPEN??"
"She shouldn't have called american people deplorables" yeah okay Trump called every group of people every possible thing and that didn't seem to hurt.

I'm not saying that she faced misogyny, I'm saying that this thread is pure misogyny. She can be held accountable without all of the hate, like literally every single candidate from either party during the past forever.
