Far be it from me to compliment Obama (and his over-sized ego), but in this case he does have a point. Hillary essentially sat of rather large backside from the DNC convention until two weeks before the election assuming the election was hers. Whether she did so for health reasons or just because he people had convinced her she already had the race in the bag, who knows? But while she was doing one or two rallies a week throughout August and September, Trump was doing 3 or more every day.

Hillary was being smart.

As Rush noted, the more she was seen, the less she was liked.

I think she took to the bottle big time after the convention, and her aides had to sober her up enough to try to campaign when it became obvious that Trump was no Romney. I really believe the Labor Day collapse was alcohol-induced, not Parkinson's. They tried to keep her sober, but she refused - hence the few-and-far-between appearances thereafter. She thought that was sufficient because having a tin ear for politics, she believed till the end that she had the election in the bag - hence, why campaign?

I personally believe she thought the “fix was in” on the election, just as it was with DOJ/FBI on her emails. Hubris and arrogance. Her “Clinton machine” was too big to fail as was the Dem vote generating machine .... and Trump (ha ha ha), that clown (ha ha ha), no political experience (ha ha ha), no ‘ground game’ (ha ha ha), no government experience while SHE had temperament & experience (ha ha ha) .... PLUS, the Dems and the American people OWED her big time and for EXTRA CREDIT, she was going to be the first woman president and for sure, everyone would want to be on the side of “herstory”. This was to be a play on ‘history’, but it reads ‘her story’ if you really look at it & that’s what it boiled down to ..... all about Clinton & power, not about what is best for America and her people. Little did anyone on the Left, including the oh-so-smart Clinton cabal/machine, realize that Trump was to ‘we the people’ what George Washington was to the soon-to-be America revolutionaries back in the days of the founding fathers. I don’t think there is another person in America who had the lineup of unique qualities that Trump has and combined with being the right man at the right time in history, with (I believe) God on his side ... he won (and ‘bigly’).

Actually, there’s the problem that she owns: Her unlikeability.

When she held an event solo, her crowds were very small. The bad press or vibe which surrounded her caused a decrease in her polling numbers.

True. Occam’s Razor says a candidate who has sought the office for four decades would spend more time on the stump if physically able.

Subsequent accounts will reveal the full extent of her devastating physical infirmities. She was unfit for office in the most basic physical sense.
