This passage in particular:

It has long been a commonplace that Hillary Clinton’s retail political skills are not the equal of her husband’s, and her senior advisers would chafe this year when Bill Clinton pressed to campaign more aggressively in white working-class areas of the Great American Middle, arguing that such voters had been lost for good by the Democrats—or at least for this year, during which disappointment over Obama’s inability to deliver for them had congealed into support for Trump. The truth is that Hillary Clinton did recognize the problem, even if she was unable to translate her awareness into an effective campaign message that would appeal to working-class whites.

After all, it was in the same speech to the elite Manhattan fundraiser where Clinton dismissed half of Trump’s supporters as a “basket of deplorables,” that she also said this, about the rest of his backers: “But the other basket—and I know this because I see friends from all over America here—people who feel that the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures, and they’re just desperate for change. It doesn’t really even matter where it comes from,” Clinton said. “They don’t buy everything he says, but he seems to hold out some hope that their lives will be different—they won’t wake up and see their jobs disappear, lose a kid to heroin, feel like they’re in a dead end. Those are people we have to understand and empathize with as well.”

So yes, both she & Bill saw the importance of the WWC (especially in the Midwest), and John Podesta and Robby Mook really shit the bed in the closing weeks of the campaign. While we're assigning blame or making excuses postmortem, we need to ensure we don't let Podesta & Mook off the hook for their epic failure. And yes, we still need to reach out to all potential Democratic voters. We don't have to sell our souls or compromise our principles to do it, and we shouldn't. But giving the middle finger to people who are still open to our message is foolish and a recipe for political disaster (and yes, it can get worse).
