2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton Favorable Rating [View all]Vattel
(9,289 posts)24. I identified what I think are the three MAIN reasons Clinton is winning.
I didn't say it was an exhaustive list of the reasons people vote for Clinton over Sanders.
Of course there are other factors. Some are voting for her because she is a woman. Some because they think single-payer would be too expensive. I could go on and on. As for the main reasons I think she is ahead, I do think I left out one: a lot of democrats are not progressive enough to prefer Sanders.

I agree, many voters have no idea how much she lies and supports wall street. nt

yep, no Democrats are voting for her because they think she'd do a good job.

I wasn't trying to list all of the reasons why someone might vote for Clinton over Sanders.

Same with trustworthiness . . And Bernie is at the top in both categories. Think it over.
