2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe real reason we lost. (No punches pulled!)
We lost because we didn't do all the things I claimed were important or believed. Our candidates should have focused on the areas and issues I thought were critical. Also people did things that I said they shouldn't have. Those other people who didn't win the primary or ran as 3rd party candidates should have done things differently too. This comprehensive evidence shows that my opinions were correct all along and I scold everyone who disagrees.
There! I have now summed up the previous 2 weeks and the next 2 months of DU's 2016 Postmortem.
