In Which the Traitor Michael Moore is Right

Over at Hot Air, David Axlerod, who knows a few things about winning elections, lays it down on Hillary!

It's everyone's fault but Hillary!'s, of course.

Hillary lost because she's a bad candidate and a bad person with bad ideas. That's it.

There's also something else, though, that factors into the bad candidate idea. Wunderid campaign manager, Robbie Mook, now if that isn't the name of a sex criminal I don't know what is, was obsessed with data rather than polls.

That is he eschewed telephone polls in favor of big data mining indicating what was happening. Campaign polls are expensive but they tell you a lot. It's almost like the wunderkid thought he had re-invented politics. That is a yuuuge mistake. No one reinvents politics. They're the same, everywhere, throughout time.

Michael Moore (he's transitioning, right?) made a great point here about 3:45:

Moore's point is that those red ball caps are a yuuge part of Trumps ground game. The two urban hipster d-bags with Moore just don't get it. And they won't, ever.

Hillary! wasn't trying to get votes. She was trying to shape a narrative. That's why she was ignored Michigan and Wisconsin, and that's why she lost.
