The wages of triangulation is loss [View All]

Hillary is blaming her losses on Black voters, activists, latte liberals, conservatives, and independent voters.

While this is an overly simplistic model, there is probably some truth to be found here.

African Americans, activists, and latte liberals are some of the most progressive groups within the party, and they are rejecting her. Why? Because they remember feeling sold out during the Clinton administration.

Conservatives and independents are also rejecting her, but not in the numbers I think she's trying to push. Many of them may have been on the other side of the divide during the Clinton years, and they remember the divisiveness of the time and feeling like the Clintons were just not Kosher. Some of them might be sexists not ready to see a woman president. And many of them might just look back and the Clinton years and go "So what?" That being said, Hillary did well in the more conservative areas of California.

She's tried to have it all ways, and it hasn't worked.
