80. She's not likeable enough.

Jan 2016

This week's episode of "Let's dishonestly attack the Democrat standing for universal Medicare with Republican talking points, and send my child out to participate", then doubling down on the dishonesty when it is pointed out, offers a big, ugly window into her character that some people are choosing not to look through. But the Democratic establishment doesn't seem to care that a candidate who has been in the public eye for 23 years, and 60% of Americans report that they view as untrustworthy, is not going to turn it around in 8 months and is going to be an anchor on Democrats downballot.
