I'm starting to warm up to her candidacy. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by 3,000, 000 votes and lost the Electoral College by 55,000 votes in WI, PA, and MI. The question then becomes, for any candidate, is what groups will he or she do worse than Hillary and what groups will he or she do better?
IMO there are no groups she will do worse and she will do marginally better among people of color , there's just not that much room for improvement, and markedly better among women and suburbanites.
