There's no way she'd have even a chance of winning if she hadn't campaigned that way.
I disagree, I think if she had campaigned as the most progressive Democrat in history that would have sparked a massive wave of new support, but it would have put her campaign up against a lot of wealthy and powerful people. She chose the easy path by cozying up to capital interests, and this strategy gets us nowhere. At best it staves off the worst of the growing fascist movement for a time, but at the same time moves the needle further to the right. I think it's shortsighted.
Wow, you have a very unrealistic understanding of where the American electorate is if you think running as "the most progressive Democrat in history" could get anywhere close to a majority, If someone could win that way, they'd certainly be trying it. Enjoy living in that bubble!
whatever, and you enjoy losing to a republican instead of a dem pretending to be one.
