I am not a Trump supporter, but it's time for Democrats to face an ugly truth. Hillary Clinton was a sorry excuse for a candidate! Her use of super delegates to lock out Bernie Sanders, a shady Whitewater real estate deal, and her stupid decision to use her personal email address to transmit official government information gave the GOP plenty of targets to attack. A better model for the Democrats would be that of a junior senator such as Obama was in 2008. Junior senators have enough government experience to be credible, but their short political careers and voting records allow for fewer points of attack by the opposition. JMHO - 2 very good choices for the Democrats would be New York's Kirsten Gillibrand and California's Kamala Harris (they have the added benefit of being really distasteful to Trump supporters!) This model worked in 2008, and it can work again.
Democrats: You can overcome Republican gerrymandering and voter suppression but only if you make smarter choices next time!
