I've never seen a party beat themselves by acting so "stupidly" (to quote Obama). When will the Dems wake from their stupor and seek to represent all real Americans?

4 winning presidential candidates have lost their state of residence. (Polk, Wilson, Nixon, Trump) 

2 winning presidential candidates have lost both their birth state & state of residence (Polk, Trump)

Only 1 has won both her birth state and state of residence and lost the election.

Not to mention the dozens upon dozens of losing candidates who resided in their birth state at the time of the election.

Yeah, but I figured he wouldn't count those.

She lost her first adopted state (Arkansas) and her ancestral state (Pennsylvania). Shame. At least she got all 4 in the primaries.

She ought to lose AR decently. I will say the same thing before the election, when polls all pointed to a near comfortable Clinton win.
