(17,193 posts)... among otherwise dispassionate, rational voters, who are concerned about the frequency with which the Clinton campaign makes unforced errors. JEB received a lot of mockery because he wasn't "the smart one" after all. One of the selling points of Clinton the Candidate is that she is a consummate politician (despite having already lost one presidential primary, which somehow seems not to count). If so, then why is her campaign making so many mistakes? And if it makes mistakes in the primary, how will it do in the general election? Meanwhile, Mr Sanders's campaign has made few errors of note, which is possibly one reason why it has eroded so much of Mrs Clinton's support.
It is to be hoped that, if Mrs Clinton is the nominee, that much of the support which Mr Sanders's campaign has eroded will fall back in line, or it is quite possible to lose this thing.
And how could one know you and not like you?
