... so tell me again where she went all wrong.

The truth is that too many voters cast their ballots based on what a candidate says rather than what they actually do.

How stupid do you have to be to believe that Trump - who has ALL of his brand-name merchandise AND all of the furnishings for his hotels manufactured in low-wage countries - is on the side of the hard-working American?

Really - just how STUPID do you have to be?

That's what we're up against - not the "wrong" ad or the "wrong" approach. We're up against voters too stupid to look beyond the ads.
