Do you think Clinton's performance in the Caucus states was because her campaign was run so poorly?

She blames the Caucus stated and Moveon.org for being behind.





Isnt it more accurate to say that she faired so poorly in the smaller states and the Caucus states because her campaign was poorly run? Wasnt it her own fault?Do you think Clinton's performance in the Caucus states was because her campaign was run so poorly?
She is just not likable, and that not just my opinion. The majority of Americans say the same thing. 7 in 10 don't trust her.Do you think Clinton's performance in the Caucus states was because her campaign was run so poorly?
Two things...she got bad advice from Penn, and I read that Obama supporter are pushy and obnoxious and barred the voters from participating. We had Obama supporters in my town (we think they were shipped in...no one knew them) who we insisting on putting BO stickers on cars. There were a lot of complaints...





But if you really look at the map...Obama won in red states that will support the republicans...the General Election is NOT like the Democratic Primary. Winner takes all...electorial votes are not split. The caucuses do not truly represent the voting of the people...look at TX when people voted, Hillary won...when they caucused...BO won. Doesn't make sense.





The republicans in my state had a caucus...they could not decide on Romney or McCain...so they voted for Huckabee.
No, it's because there was a lot of pressure %26amp; intimidation in the Obama campaign. Why did Obama do so poorly on the primaries that were not caucuses?
Absolutely. Obama's chief strategist, Axelrod, studied those caucus states and got ground movements organized in every one long before Obama even arrived. Before Obama hit Texas, twelve campaign offices were already up and operating several weeks in advance.





Hillary did not plan for the caucus states because she thought she would win every primary and that would be it. She thought her nomination would be in the bag by Super Tuesday.
No. I think it's because OB';s supporters can be very persuasive in those type of events.
yes
I think it's because her campaign assumed there would be no serious challengers and so they didn't need the caucuses to reach the magic number. That was a HUGE tactical error. Then she whined about it. That was just unattractive.
YES, and if her campaign can be run so poorly. Imagine what she would do with the country.





'Obama 08'
It's because in caususes everyone knows who you're voting for. So both whites and blacks felt pressured to vote for Obama. But this strategy does not work in primaries where the vote is secret.
