The big difference here is that HRC sucked ass in every possible way.

Warren canāt do worse than Clinton against Trump and almost certainly does better. Hillary was the nut-low against Trump. Being the ultimate creature of the establishment was much worse for her than being a woman. Dems need to run someone with anti-establishment street cred. Warren has that.

You know, given that Pelosi is throwing the game and the media is cranking up the false equivalence machine again, maybe we should just have the House pass a resolution promising no impeachment for any reason no matter what, and have Nancy call Trump a stable genius every day, then let the candidates discuss healthcare, jobs and income inequality non-stop and ignore the existence of Donald Trump.
It might be the only way to win this election in a world where Nancy Pelosi is this complicit and the media is this incompetent/complicit. Because this barrage of tweets from Trump is not going to stop, and itās already working.
She really didnāt. She kicked his ass in every debate. Her positions were fine. The email thing was made up bullshit just like pocahantas is bullshit, but itāll stick in the exact same way. Heāll come up with some made up reason thatāll be parroted in the right wing derposhere to give all the deplorables who were already predisposed to hate a woman reason to hate her.

HRC was the status quo. Thatās where it so hard to defend against Trump/brexit/Duterte/Erdogan
Yes. The status quo is much better, but it still sucks, and if you get stuck defending it you gonna lose. The only defence against these folks is to attack the status quo as well as them.
Warren seems to be doing okay with that.
Her positions were lies and everyone on all sides knew it. The people who supported her the most just thought she was smart to lie.

The Pocohantas thing wonāt stick. The email thing hurt Hillary because she was a sketchy person who (legally) set up a private email server to circumvent the Freedom of Information Act.
It doesnāt matter what deplorables think of the eventual Democratic nominee. What matters is how the Democratic base responds.
Positions donāt matter. Worldview matters. The narrative around Hillary was that she was seeking power for the sake of power. Itās hard to argue with that.

Clinton dropped the ball bigly, she thought the election was in the bag and the office was already hers. She never campaigned a day in Wisconsin, Michigan or Ohio. Warren will not make those types of mistakes, she has shown stamina and the ability to electrify her followers.
This is a joke of a narrative thatās been told and repeated so many times it may as well be truth now. But whatever.
Just fyi hillary had a campaign rally in michigan and ohio. In fact i dont even get where you think she ignored ohio, lol. She spent more time in ohio than any other state in the last week of the campaign.
She lost Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania (especially Michigan) because of NAFTA.
