“She blew it”

She came into the race late because that’s when Joe Biden dropped out. She had just over three months to put a team together and campaign and she did a phenomenal job with the time that she had.

Frankly, I put some of the blame on the ‘leave it blank people’ and partially on the voters that ‘just could not vote for that woman.’ it wasn’t the first time we heard those words and sadly I don’t think it’s gonna be the last time.
