And my point was that Clinton actually delivered better than the Republicans did. You have to have SOMETHING to market.
I worked at a company whose unoffical motto was "We suck the least". Meaning our product wasn't that good, but everybody else in our market was worse. That's all it takes. Republicans just don't have it.
I agree, but an average product with great marketing can do (and often does do) much better than a great product with average marketing.
But you are correct, of course: The GOP needs something solid to market, in any case.
