Honestly, the Democrats didn't catch on when Obama beat Clinton. She is a terrible candidate.

They could have easily won this with a half decent candidate with less baggage. The insistence on running her again is leading to this.

It's amazing how wrong the polling data was, regardless of the final outcome.

What rules? It wasn't wrong to have a private email server, lots of people, including Republicans, have had one.

Bowie, Prince, Alan Rickman, and Anton Yelchin all dead.

Gord Downie diagnosed with cancer.

Flames playing like garbage to start the season/ Oilers currently tied for #1 in the West.

Brexit

And now very likely a Donald Trump presidency.

...2016, you f'n suck.

The pollsters greatly underestimated the rural voter turnout.

Don't let it be forgotten that there's a sizable portion of the US that can't grasp the concept of a woman as President. Don't think that Clinton being a woman isn't also a part of this.

Yeah Hillary is the all-time political goat, and not in the good way. Whether she gets locked up or not, she is a failure in history that will always be remembered for the next....2-3 years.

Nothing has really happened yet that's massively contrary to polls though. Just Michigan is a bit off.

What could she have done? Really, she ran a pretty much flawless campaign. She had maybe one gaffe (deplorables comment). She maybe could have been more aggressive but aggressive women are looked down on.

What could she have done different. Other than be a man?

I find it entertaining actually. I'm not on either side so watching both the left and the right go at each other is entertaining. But yeah, racism is going to be increasing at an alarming rate now.

I was going to place a bet on Trump winning. Really wish I did now.

This is complete lunacy. I get the "middle finger to the status quo" argument, but do these people not realize that Trump is the status quo, but in caricature form? This isn't a middle finger, it's self-immolation.

Although I do love a good train wreck.. Let's see how bad things can get. The guy who couldn't have Twitter is going to have his finger on the button (quite possibly).
