@jalefkowit sad but true, yes

Also that Hillary was starting from behind with a massive handicap:

* a former President's spouse, so immediately raising feelings of suspicion and self-dealing

* the subject of a decades-long massive fear campaign by her rivals

* campaigned as an establishment technocrat on 'expertise' and 'experience' *at a time when the establishment, especially on the economy, and including her own policies, has clearly and obviously been failing the world*

@jalefkowit No, these are obviously mutually exclusive, duh.
