Facts: Hillary is a liar, crook, used her office for personal gain, lied under oath....in short what IBD editorial says is true but Hillary's main reason for not winning is her utterly horrid character flaws.

Consider for a moment the face of the two campaigns in a comparison of their principal slogans. Trump's was simple and positive: "Make America Great Again". Implied is that America had deviated from the course of good and that the candidate not only wanted to, but had a program for righting it. Hillary couldn't use that sort of approach directly even if she wanted to because her party was incumbent.

Hers? "I'm With Her". The only operative word there is "her", meaning her identity as a female. And that really was the gist of her campaign, a sense of unfair denial of a position that was rightfully due, entirely inward-directed. Worse in that respect was her other slogan, "Stronger Together", meaning the same thing and utterly exclusive of anyone whose political identity did not carry a cachet of oppression and resentment. Again, entirely negative and implicitly aggressive toward the shared political enemy.

Trump's was a public campaign filled with vigor, even bombast, and played personally to large audiences, filled with flags and patriotism and actually inclusive of the working class. Hillary's was nothing like that, her public appearances terse, brief, heavily scripted, and appallingly insincere. Openly dependent on connections with the wealthy and influential, exclusive of anyone else except under the terms just listed. Insular. It isn't a good face for a political candidacy.

It wouldn't have taken a lot to fix this. Does anyone remember what her intentions were with respect to foreign policy or domestic energy production? If so, congratulations. What do we remember other than a relentless drive to change the country through aggressive social policies directed at class enemies (who voted, incidentally)? A woman could have won, yes, but not that woman. It comes down to the candidate, as it nearly always does.

“Putin aide: Clinton advisors met with Russian ambassador ‘lots’ of times’...”

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/putin-aide-clinton-advisors-met-with-russian-ambassador-lots-of-times/article/2617149

Hillary lost because the MSM covered for her every crime... no one trusted her. The New York Times and Washington Post took Hillary down...

I sort of miss her. It was great to make fun of her on an almost daily basis.

Her being an evil, vindictive, volatile, craven, unethical, acquisitive, and murderous sociopath incapable of telling the truth just may have had more to do with it than her gender...

She assumed it was her turn. Why? Because she had been touted as “the smartest woman in the world”! Well duh.......she wasn’t!

The study itself didn't mince words, calling her campaign "devoid of policy discussions in a way not seen in the previous four presidential elections."

When you're attempting to sell a cr@p sandwich, you focus on the packaging.

The left seems to think that we are all a bunch of biased dudes who would never vote for a woman because we are sexist male chauvinist pigs. They don’t care to admit that hillary is a mean lying marxist.

Hitlery lost because she is a venomous harridan!

One synonym of venomous is “toxic:” extremely harsh, malicious, or harmful

Harridan: an angry and unpleasant woman

Synonyms and Antonyms of harridan

a bad-tempered scolding woman if you were married to that harridan, you, too, would take to drink.

Synonyms: battle-ax (or battle-axe), dragon lady, fury, harpy, shrew, termagant, virago, vixen

(Both definitions/synoynyms FRom https://www.merriam-webster.com/)

I think we all can agree that whether the person be male or female, a person exhibiting angry, unpleasant, extremely harsh, malicious or harmful behavior would not be tolerated in society, much less in elective office once such behavior is widely known!

Hillary Clinton’s campaign was awful, it was only partisanship to the extreme that had her almost win.

nothing more so than a self-imposed feeling of invulnerability and inevitability.

incompetence + worthlessness + unlikability + ill health = loss

She lost because the majority of white women voted against her.

White females voted for Trump, 51-48, over the white female candidate. So much for identity politics.

All Hillary did was run as “not Trump.” She offered no policy or platform to vote for. Aside from being of very low character.
