6. Hillary was on a different level

Klobuchar is my favorite female this time but I'm not pretending she is anything close to Hillary Clinton, who was my favorite Democratic nominee of my lifetime.

But likability is extremely unfair and Hillary had it only in isolated windows of time. Many of the same voters who disliked Hillary for no reason at all in 2016 would be drawn to Amy.

BTW, if we had 60% of the vote then we wouldn't have to emphasize bipartisanship. Meanwhile we'll be life and death to hit 50% against an incumbent in 2020. That's the reality whether anyone wants to accept it or not. I'll sign up for a flat 50% of the popular vote right now and take my chances. Hillary managed 48.2%.
