CBS: Hillary Clinton on why she lost and "the most important" mistake she made
Hillary Clinton has spent the last 10 months trying to figure out why she isn't the president of the United States.
"I am good," Clinton told "Sunday Morning" anchor Jane Pauley. "But that doesn't mean I am complacent or resolved about what happened. It still is very painful. It hurts a lot." Jane Pauley:
As the polls closed, Clinton's supporters gathered in a New York City convention center, expecting to see history being made. But as the returns came in, the celebratory mood began to fade.
"I just kinda went in the bedroom, laid down on the bed, just thought, 'Okay. I just have to wait this out,'" Clinton said. "But then, midnight, I decided, 'Well-- you know, looks like it's not gonna work.'"

Update #2: Clinton: I am done with being a candidate (The Hill)
WNU Editor: She says she is out .... but she drags herself back in. My brother and his wife are
hardcore Democrats .... and even before today's CBS This Morning interview (see above video) they have told me more than once that they were hoping that she would just go away. My prediction .... she may not run in 2020, but she is going to make sure that she is in the public eye for the next few years.Will she help the Democrat party .... I do not know. But I do know that among many of my American friends who are Democrats .... they have already moved past her and are looking for someone new.
Update #3: This is actually easy to understand .... Clinton Was So Confident of Victory She Bought Second Home in Chappaqua to Accommodate White House Staff (Washington Free Beacon). She made the fatal mistake of listening (and believing) what the main stream media was saying about her chances of winning the Presidency .... and she .... like everyone else who voted for her on election day .... went into shock when that was not the result. What is the lesson .... be skeptical of what the media is saying .... their track-record is really not that good. And speaking of the media .... Seniors: 99.2% say media wants Trump to fail, 71% 'strongly' back reelection (Washington Examiner).
