Depends how you define good candidateGiven that the goal of any candidacy is to win election , it would make sense to judge how good a candidate is by how well they acheive those goals . The popular vote whether you want to admit it or not , is merely the consolation prize . PA , MI , and WI haven ' t been red for 20 years . Clinton lost to someone that likes to grab women by the pussy . Clinton is not president , and she didn ' t campaign in states that she was clearly very vulnerable in i . e . WISo in that sense , clinton was a very bad candidate . She didn ' t win and many traditionally blue states flipped away from her wiping her out in the electoral college . <| sep |> Honestly , it seems justified to claim that forcing a woman to carry a pregnancy to term is a form of domestic abuse . It is hardly a walk in the park for those 9 months and ends with an incredible amount of physical pain . If we had wonderful fantasy technology to move the fetus to a surrogate or artificial womb at the father ' s request that would be another story , but without that technology preventing the woman from having final say is unacceptable .
