How Clinton lost Michigan - and blew the election  

Well, at least she blew something.  I hear her old man was having to sneak around to get his jollies.

Anyway, it's not a bad analysis, but it's unnecessary.  There were far more salient reasons to explain her loss.  For one thing, The Donald tapped into the anxiety of the rust belt workers.  For another, she was a poor choice.  You in particular may have trouble believing this, but many folks don't relate well to a devious, elderly lawyer with a criminal psychology.

hardly.  At least not to me, which is a big part of the reason I didn't vote for either of them.

Still, the three points I made are valid:  1.  She's a poor candidate  2.  Trump tapped into the electoral votes he needed in a clever way.  3.  This business about gaming the system isn't guaranteed to win with a candidate whose prime qualification is inevitability
