Hillary’s campaign has replaced Romney 2012 as the most inept campaign in modern history.

Your point is well-put and -taken. However, some of the cities you cite needed no fraud. For example, Hillary won California 7 million to 4 million. Of course, if the contest had been tight in those locales, then fraud would have loosened it again.

One box had 300 votes for Hillary. When opened there were 50 ballots.

Well, Republicans certainly have. As I wrote in my book Going Red, Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential operation had the same problems — a top-down strategy that ignored advice from people who knew the voters, and a data operation built on assumptions that didn’t have a basis in reality. Hillary 2016 is practically a replay of the Romney team’s issues, in Dovere’s telling.

It’s exactly what you’d expect from any elitist establishment candidate. Bad policies, tone deaf messaging and top down campaigning

She should have had Michigan in the bag. She certainly acted as though she did. I heard the thunder over the horizon starting a few weeks before the Election myself, but I remained skeptical that the storm would hit.

If Trump and the Republicans can force elections to require voter ID, democrats will never win another election again.

I am very proud to have myself, been one of those 10,000 votes for Donald Trump which put him over the top. If in fact it did (because Trump won solidly, by more than Michigan)

But I will just point out, the Clinton team was in the state in the last couple of weeks, an particularly at the end. Numerous times.

She blew the election like a 0.32 BAC breathalyzer.

She was driving while intoxicated and drove into a telephone pole.

SKANK Madonna could have blown the whole state and HIllaryous Rotten Criminal still wouldn’t have won.

“The Blue Wall states”... they obviously believed their own propaganda, a common failure of all tyrannical regimes. “I mean, if they are the strong, blue wall, then why do we need to spend resources there?”

I thought it was Mad Donna who reneged on blowing everyone in her home state of Michigan. I doubt Hillary has ever blown anyone.

. . . the narrative is the same across battlegrounds, where Democratic operatives lament a one-size-fits-all approach drawn entirely from pre-selected data . . .

And why not? They took the exact same approach with regard to health care!

They based all their strategy on a computer model.

So did the global warming gang...

Any damn fool can draw a line on graph paper, the real trick is making reality follow the line!!

Why doesn’t that same contempt come through in Chicago? It seemingly does in her native Indiana

Seeing the words ‘Hillary’ and ‘blew’ in the same sentence must have sent a cold chill up Bill’s spine tonight...

IIRC she grew up in suburban Chicago.

How she blew Michigan can be boiled down to this: She miscalculated how many votes she needed to fake.
