30. She must not realize she has a snowball's chance in a hot place to be our nominee

Tells you who she talks to IMO, in other words the same type of people who helped her to defeat last year.

And before you jump on me I thought she performed mostly admirably under very difficult circumstances. “Mostly” because while she delivered a debate performance for the ages she received and accepted fatally bad communications advice; what to say, when to say it, how often to say anything at all and who to say it to. She is cautious to a fault, which is not a bad trait for a prosecutor, but a total non-starter for anyone who wants to crack the contemporary code and win nationally right now.
