    No it wasn’t, it was trying to force Hillary Clinton down our throats.

    She won the primary, but spent all her money in the primary and did almost zero opposition research on trump.

    Because Hillary Clinton is remarkably unpopular, she has zero charisma. A life time in politics and her only elected office was a completely safe Blue Senate seat for a state she never lived in after essentially an uncontested primary.

    The party put all our eggs in a basket with a giant hole in the bottom, because she spent decades stacking up political favors and called them all in.

    Bernie could have pulled off an Obama, but the party learned their lesson the last time voters overruled the party. That’s why they switched to the strategy and actual legal defense of “it’s my party and I’ll influence the results if I want”.
