And for the 4th time, you haven't explained why you think policy ads would have worked!
I'm happy to make that wrt WI and MI, and have. But she ALSO didn't differentiate herself on policy level fr Trump
-
-
Trump was just the anti- candidate, and the study just shows that ads weren't the deciding factor b/c she actually had more.
-
No. It showed that she deviated from the norm of the last half century of explaining why you're better than opponent.
-
I think they were far more factors that decided this election than what was in some 30 second ads that most people fast forward through.
-
Sure. Including Hillary didn't campaign in rural areas (of course, that's moot in MI and WI, bc she didn't really campaign)
-
But THIS THREAD is abt whether desperate voters should have been expected to make policy choice they weren't presented.
-
Again, if you're making that once in 4 years choice based on what you see in 30 sec ads, damn right I hold my fellow Americans accountable.
-
Also, any reason why a professional politician should be excused for demanding voters act in ways we know they don't act?
-
Is the politician responsible for our flaws? Do they have to spoon feed us their messages? We alone are responsible for our vote.

If she had to do that, then we really are doomed. Seriously, are people that dumb?
-
Seriously are you really saying a half century of political practice was dumb?
-
No, just that it wasn't the factor in those states. Trump wasn't selling his policies either.
-
Actually not what the study--or other factors--shows.

She's policy wonk. That she didn't clearly explain why policies are better than Trump's where voters would see it malpractice

And to be honest, those Midwest polls didn't crater until after the Comey debacle. When the polls tanked the ad buys cranked.
