The Best Argument For Hillary

From Talk Left.

Very short form Caucuses suck; Barack's "win" is based almost exclusively on caucuses. It is a 15 page document and makes a strong Pro-Hillary argument.

Still the nagging question remains why did not Hillary have a plan for the caucus states? Why was she so badly crushed in February? There was a deep organizational flaw in team Hillary that hurt her badly. A better campaign would have had a better ground game in the caucus states.

She underestimated Obama and pursued a flawed strategy recommended by others, that was not based on the rules. On the other hand Obama took complete control of his campaign from the very beginning. I imagine he, his wife and his management team all reviewed the rules together and developed a workable strategy. As the campaign moved along, there was constant assessments, what worked, what didn't work, etc. I am sure they are writing a seminal work on the strategy and interworkings of their groundbreaking approach to presidential politics. By the time Hillary figured out what was going on after Super Tuesday, it was too late.
