Democrats who want someone to blame for last year exist in large numbers. What they don't realize is the only one to blame is the book's author.

Well, sure she shares the blame.

But she is far from the only one.

Russia, Comey, actual fake news surrounding her e-mails and Benghazi, Bernie Sanders and those of his supporters too stubborn to vote for her, and so many potential voters who didn't vote at all for whatever reason.  All those factors (and others) share the blame with Hillary.  She made mistakes, and there is no doubt about that.  But any mistakes she made during the campaign, and whatever butthurt feelings that kept Sanders' supporters from voting for her, are no excuse for not supporting her in the most vital election of our lifetimes--and now we are all suffering/going to suffer through one of the worst (the worst?) presidential administrations in American history.

It's the job of a candidate to convince people to vote for them. It's not the responsibility of voters to vote for a candidate they don't like or disagree with.

Your post is what people mean when they say Hillary and her hacks are entitled.

It's much harder to convince voters when there are multiple thumbs on the scale. While Hillary deserves some blame, ignoring Russia, Comey and her unfair treatment in the media is just intellectually dishonest. And entitled is trying to convince super delegates to overrule the actual vote, not being upset that the 2016 election wasn't an even playing field.

No one brought up Sanders, no need to bring up the supers. Plus, the supers  were always going to vote Hillary, even in a situation where Sanders got a narrow edge in pledged delegates.
