Sexism is the sole reason Hillary lost

I agree that Clinton shouldn't have relied on women as the sole demographic necessary to win her the election. Because that strategy completely failed but I also think its absolutely ignorant to say that a woman should have voted for Hillary because we share the same gender. No, they should vote for a candidate based on their policies and initiatives.

I voted for Hillary but I am not blaming everyone else, anti-suffragism, and sexism for her loss. I blame her. The buck stops with her and if she was any other candidate - this would have been acknowledged already. When a President fails, that failure rests at their feet. They don't get to hide behind name-calling and '-isms' to say why their efforts failed. I expect the same composure and sense of responsibility from my presidential candidates.

It's petty of her supporters and her staff to acknowledge anything less.

Yep, this.

I once heard my mom complain about the poor service from a male service rep, and she said "It wasn't like he was a dumb woman."

Absolutely not. She was a terrible candidate with scandal after scandal. All this whining is ridiculous -- ladies we need a strong woman candidate that people can excited about like we did for Obama.

Yes. Women especially hate successful women.

And that is why the whiny women voted for Hillary Clinton because they knew in their hearts she would never be successful. On the other hand, successful women who disdain whiney women voted for Trump.

As a woman and the mother of two - one being a young girl - I don't vote with my vagina . I vote with my brain. And in this case, I didn't vote.

So you can take your fake sociological study and shove it into the 2020 ballot box, genius.

Feminism is not voting for every vagina that passes by.

I'm a huge Hillary supporter. On election night I might have said this. After some reflection I can say it was a piece of it but this was a multi faceted loss .

People shouldn't vote for Hillary because she's a woman, but there's no denying that she is held to a much higher standard than the males running against her. She had to be perfect; just like everyone expects black to be perfect. If she did half the shit that Trump, or even Bernie did she wouldn't have gotten that far. There's also no denying that she lost many votes, soley for being a woman.

Before you accuse me of bias, the sand held true for Sarah Palin.

Yes, but here's the thing that people like Barack Obama have known all along. You have to work twice as hard. She didn't. It's as simple as that. She was completely complacent because she knew she was the better political candidate, she had more experience in all fields of knowledge, she was smarter, she was more articulate, she had bigger donor numbers, she was the favorable candidate. She let all of that get to her head and she coasted. Do you think Barack Obama got to be President twice with a 10,000,000 vote lead over McCain just because he was the better candidate? Hell no. She should have known that and she should have worked her ass off.

Instead she:

- Dialed down campaign add runs
- Didn't step it up in key states
- Laughed at and mocked his antics on social media
- Didn't distance herself from staff that core constituents objected to
- Spent more time with donors than with blue-collar voters

Hillary does not agree with the OP.

She says she lost because of Comey.
