Hillary Clinton calls 2016 the first 'reality TV campaign' (she lost because she was too honest)
Washington Times ^ | November 22, 2017 | Sally Persons

Posted on 11/22/2017 6:25:36 AM PST by Zakeet

Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said the 2016 campaign was the first "reality TV campaign," bringing its own unique set of challenges.

"My opponent was the first reality TV candidate, and I was, for better or worse, the candidate of reality," Mrs. Clinton said in an interview that aired Wednesday on "The Hugh Hewitt Show."

She said that running after a two-term president of the same party also brought its challenges in the campaign, adding it was hard to argue she was an agent of change when she supported much of former President Barack Obama's agenda.

"If you are both the candidate defending a lot of the areas of agreement, but also putting forth an agenda for change, which is what I tried to do, it is often difficult to get the second part of that message through," Mrs. Clinton explained.

No, they shudder when Bernie talks; most of the party leadership in every state are owned by the Clinton dynasty.

Congrats Democrats. This loon will never go away. Hillary will be in her nineties and in a wheelchair, and will still have power over that party. She and Bill still have the keys to all the Democrats closets filled with political skeletons!

This woman should give some psychologist a lifetime of study in denial. She has really lost whatever sanity she may have had.

...This is an hard teaching for you to accept, Hillary, but the reason you lost was because you sucked, then, now and forever.

Plus you took voters for granted in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, and you declared war on the 5 million members of the National Rifle Association, and you didn’t really have a message besides “vote for me because I have a vagina and Donald Trump says mean things” and you looked old and sick, and because you’re known to be corrupt, and because you got busted f***ing over all of Bernie’s supporters, and because blacks didn’t really turn out for you the way they did for Obama and because we just played a better game than you did.

I’ve been watching elections since 1960 and I’ve never seen a losing candidate so obsessed with talking about why they lost.

What is this, reason number 73? Shut up already.

The cocky witch really thought she had it all sewn up, just like Jeb Bush. Those two were utterly convinced that the race would be between the two of them and I think it probably would have been had Donald Trump not stepped in.

Hillary has five book signings schedule for December 2017.
I’m hoping that after those she will drop from the scene.

Here’s another take: WHY is bothering with this? It can’t be about wealth, she’s set for life. So - what is it?

- Power hungry?

- Wants to somehow ensure that she doesn’t face prosecution for prior crimes?

- Feels her professional life is a failure until she reaches President? A/K/A It’s not about serving America, it’s about personal needs.

She’s really not the only one this question should apply to. Congress has persons who could be enjoying an extremely comfortable retirement... yet, waste away in that sewer in Washington. Seriously - Conyers took office in 1965?!

You then (and others here) probably remember how producer Don Hewitt deliberately slanted the Kennedy-Nixon TV debate in 1960 in favour of Kennedy. I bet she’s still sore over that that she could not get away with what JFK did in that and probably other instances with help from the MSM at that time.

Hillary Clinton deeply needs psychiatric care, and that is not a joke. This woman is absolutely obsessed. Her every waking moment seems to dwell on what could of been, what might have been. She genuinely seems incapable of disengaging any part of her life from this mental political quagmire she has constructed for herself.

She has more money the 99% of people on the planet. She has a grandchild. She can still go out and speak to willing gullible people who will pay her. She could go out and volunteer somewhere. No, this woman is possessed and won’t let go and move on with her life and do something productive for the remainder of her years on earth.

Although I have never been a fan of Hillary Clinton, yet this woman has become a pitiable tragic human figure. She is caught in her own trap that she can’t or won’t escape.
