Hillary was a horrible candidate in 2016, and the idea of her running again is laughable. Trump is an idiot, but he was holding several rallies a day and connected with the Deplorables. Meanwhile, Hillary hardly campaigned and basically ignored the midwest. However, if she'd chosen Corey Booker as her running mate, she'd be president right now. At any rate, the Dems need a much younger, charismatic, and high energy candidate.

I don’t think she was a “horrible candidate” per se, but I do think she, her people ran a horrible campaign.
Yes, she got 3 million more votes - so what? First of all, those votes were all in states that were safely Blue - she and her campaign failed in getting those few hundred thousand votes in the states where it would have mattered. Second, we do not elect the President by popular vote; the Electoral College casts the votes based on states won to determine which candidate hits the magic number first. This is basic civics, and no, it’s not going to change. Why? The smaller states will never allow it because if it’s just a popular vote, candidates in theory just have to run up the votes in cities, on the coasts, and can ignore everywhere else.
I really don’t think HRC has any plans to run again and risk becoming the female Adlai Stevenson. But there is a part of me that thinks she gets a perverse joy out of all the speculation her potential run in 2020 gets.

Lord Jesus not this again. The last thing this country needs is a replay of 2016.
She won the popular vote R8 because she was running against DONALD FUCKING TRUMP, an insane failed reality show host.
The fact that she ONLY won by 3 million votes is pretty damning. The decomposing body of Socks The Cat would have won by the same amount.
Similarly, she won the Democratic primary against a crotchety old Jewish socialist who should not even have been taken seriously as a candidate.
She lost to Trump because more people in the right states disliked her than disliked him.
Even factoring in Comey and the Russians, the election should have been hers in a runaway.
Whether that's justified or not, whether it's because GOP propaganda is working is besides the point. Yes, she's had a few brief periods where she was less unpopular, but since she was the wife of the governor of Arkansas, there's been something about her that people dislike. She knew that going in and did nothing to remedy it, ran an incredibly lazy, sloppy and out-of-touch campaign to the point where "It's Her Turn" was seriously considered as a slogan.
As the editorial boards of the New York Times and Washington Post have both pointed out this month, her continued high profile only energizes Trump and his base and for the good of the party she should keep to the sidelines.
She may indeed have gotten the short end of the stick for someone of her talents, but better to be noble and selfless than selfish.
If she does run, it will only undercut Harris or Booker or whoever is going to be the younger standard bearer for the party We need to unite to win in 2020 and Hillary's presence will only divide us, possibly fatally.

Well, no R28, nobody does... because she didn't "take the entire month of August off in 2016." What we do remember is that she worked through illness and exhaustion, performed spectacularly in the debates, and despite 30+ years of radical rightwing extremist press coverage that would have brought a lesser candidate (like Donald Trump) to tears, she pulled off the technical win by nearly 3 million votes.
And no, R24, it wasn't "those few hundred thousand votes in the states where it would have mattered;" it was 80,000 votes spread across three states that have been gerrymandered, lied to, and are controlled by the Republican apparatus (literally, they own the voting machines... I would ask "what could possibly go wrong?" but we know the answer and are seeing it once again in Texas as people vote for Beto and see their vote flipped for Cruz) so it wasn't exactly like Hillary stood on the corner and handed out MAGA hats.
I hate the historical revisionism that this topic engenders. The reason that she didn't campaign in the midwest was because the voting models predicted the outcome incorrectly. I know this because I had a friend who was working for the campaign in Wisconsin and was sent home to devote the resources elsewhere because they thought they had the state in the bag.
What they didn't poll and count on was that people in the midwest HATE the Clintons with the passion of a thousand suns. It's both perplexing and completely understandable at the same time, circling back to the rightwing lie machine that has told people in manufacturing and farming jobs that it was the Democrats' fault that their jobs were shipped overseas by Republican oligarchs squeezing every last dime of profit out of them, killing unions, and selling out the country for personal gain since Reagan opened the floodgates in the 80s to offshoring including the obscene tax incentives for killing American jobs. It's the Republicans' mastery of blaming Democrats for everything bad that they do, and the electorate being gullible enough to believe the lies. Hence, we have Scott Walker in Wisconsin, doing his best to destroy what was once a strong liberal state with good jobs and a bright future. This is what happens when you dumb down the educational system, stop teaching science, math, and in particular, civics, and instead bring religion and all of the gobbledygook that entails into the classrooms.
But let's give Hillary some credit where credit is due: she's not running. It's obvious. If she were, she would already have the financial apparatus set up and would be campaigning already. Just because she and Bill are earning some money giving speeches — their plan for the next year, not coincidentally cutting deeply into the time that she would be otherwise required to be raising money and setting the stage for another run — conflicts with this alternative reality where Hillary is the perpetual candidate and boogeyman.
And, let's not forget that Bernie's supporters have not gone anywhere, and are still, to this day, butthurt over the fact that their last-minute Democrat didn't manage to win the primaries. This encapsulates the Democrats' problems in a nutshell, stated eloquently by some pundit I'm too lazy to look up: Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line. Even when their candidate is literally a child molester, they line up to vote for him. Hillary deletes 30,000 emails about everything from her daughter's wedding to the Nigerian prince's latest scam, and the concern trolls line up to wonder why she would have done such a thing (right before deleting the hundreds of spam emails they get every day, because that's [italic]different[/italic]).
No, what she said in the Hill's quoted interview was that the next Democratic president is going to have a huge mess — the biggest, if you will — to clean up, whether it's in 2020 or, God forbid, 2024. But this is the way that it has been for the last 50 years; the Democrat hands over a thriving economy, (relative) worldwide peace, and stability so the Republicans can fuck it all up.

I know there are some Hillary supporters who believed she should have ran unopposed in the primaries, but Sanders ran and his run and support he garnered exposed weak links for Hillary to address. And while I understand why she shouldn't have picked Sanders as her running mate, she could have picked someone younger who could appeal to Sanders supporters. But instead she chose a dull DC insider like Kaine who held no appeal to the people who preferred Sanders. Combine that with little to no campaigning in the midwest and she was in trouble. Contrast this with Trump who had weaknesses with evangelicals because of his character. But Trump was smart to pick Pence as his running mate as Pence was the real deal as an evangelical religious right winger and signalled Trump would take them seriously in terms of implementing polices they wanted (and he has let them). Trump united his base with his VP choice; Hillary didn't. I think choice of running mate played a part in ultimately who won as Trump excited and enhanced his base while Hillary didn't.

Does the fact that millions of people live in a particular state (a state that's a fucking global economy all on its own) somehow negate their vote? You want to know what's actually ridiculous? The fact that someone like me who lives in NYC -a city with a population greater than several red states combined- is beholden to those shit, red states that contribute less than nothing for the upkeep of the country.

The fact that a turtle-looking dickhead hick from a TAKER state with only a little more than half the population of NYC alone, controls the purse-strings, is what is actually despicable.
Republicans can't actually win in many places on the state level without gerrymandering. Pointing out that millions of people living in a state "had the nerve to vote" for Hillary, doesn't make your point, it only highlights the fascistic-leanings of the right-wing who don't believe in having an actual Democracy where it's one-person-one-vote.

Quelle surprise, another enabling "liberal" who ignores the actual suffering of working class people at the hands of a limo-riding/silver-spooned/racist-NYer who appeals to those other "working class" people.
Oh yes, we're the elitists, mot Trump who won them over by making them feel special based solely on their epidermis and nothing more.

She was the most qualified person to ever have run for office and she would have made a great president. But she shouldn’t run again and I don’t think she will.
Unfortunately, 25+ years of Republican and media smears have worked on too many people for her to ever be elected, which is too bad for the American people.
I think the first woman POTUS will probably be a Republican, sadly. A female Democratic candidate would be attacked from both the left and the right, while the GOP will always (and Trump is living proof) close ranks around their candidate, whoever he or she may be.

Not sure where this lie got started. She was the most qualified person running in 2016. Period.
Within recent memory, George HW Bush, Al Gore, John Kerry and Bob Dole were far more "qualified" than she was, e.g. they had spent more time in Congress, had held various other positions (Bush was CIA chief, Ambassador to UN and to China), Gore and Bush had spent 8 years each as VP... in the scheme of things HRC is towards the middle of the poack in terms of "on paper" qualified candidates

Only because he couldn't get them. His supporters are idiots specifically because they think Trump isn't into celebrity culture. He worships at the alter of celebrity culture. If his choices were between meeting a Hollywood celebrity or military vet, he'd meet the former every fucking time. He lives, breathes and eats celebrity culture. So when these idiots go off about Hillary and celebrities, they need to keep in mind that they voted for one who would rather be an Oscar party than lunch with them at Olive Garden.

R102 The fact that Dems love to stay in a little bubble and listen to no opposing ideas or arguments is the very reason Trump was elected. I'm not Russian or a troll, but I know that a large segment of America is tired of the elitist party the Democrats have become. It's all the very wealthy, celebrities, and people who work in academia. Keep covering your ears and screaming like a toddler. It accomplishes nothing. I live in the south and paid attention to what people in my community were saying. Trump was a form of backlash.

There were DLers at the time who clearly gave warning, especially about Pennsylvania, that Trump could win there and had better than a 50/50 chance of doing so. Granted they were laughed at. It seems like in 2018, DLers are now more willing to listen to those living in the battleground states to get the actual pulse of what's happening.

I mean it can't possibly mean anything else, right? What else could it mean since they worship a wealthy, born-on-third, never worked a min. wage job, handed tens of millions from his parents, lived in a literal golden apt, limos, private planes, fucks over working people, private membership country club. The worst stereotype of a NYer and all of those poor, (white) working people in "real 'murcah" gravitated to him like flies to shit. Gee, I wonder what it was about him that appealed to them since his entire life exemplifies "elitism." Whatever could it have been...?

As horrible as trump is, she couldnt beat him in a national election in 2020 if she somehow got there and i doubt the country or world would survive 4 more years of trump. This is how urgently bad this decision of hers would be.
Im sure her thinking is,,,,,,see public trump is terrible, now make up for your terrible injustice and install me with my rightful crown.
