Precisely. Or maybe, and I know Dims are loathe to admit this, just maybe, their candidate wasn't a very good candidate. (I don't know this, just going on a limb and making a wild guess.) Normally, he may have won; but when you combine a terrible candidate with even worse ideas, kind of have to expect him to fail.
