    Inside the Clinton loss: Who's to blame?

    Story highlights
    Many Democrats believe the list should begin with this: Clinton and her campaign
    Advisers close to Clinton are trying to get ahead of a bitter round of finger-pointing

    Washington (CNN)The high command of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign believe there's plenty of blame to go around for their stunning loss to Donald Trump.

    They're pointing fingers at FBI Director James Comey, unfair media coverage and voters resistant to electing the first woman president.

    But many Democrats believe the list should begin with this: Clinton and her campaign.

    As a new political order falls over Washington, advisers close to Clinton are trying to get ahead of a bitter round of finger-pointing inside a newly-decimated Democratic Party. In a conference call with top donors Friday, campaign chairman John Podesta said a "hostile press corps" contributed to Clinton's defeat. Other top advisers said Comey's decision to take another look at Clinton's emails stopped the campaign's momentum and motivated Trump voters. That bombshell contributed to a significant fall-off among college educated voters "who fizzled at the end," an adviser said. Those voters, always wavering about Clinton, were simply turned off at the end.

    The call on Friday, which was described to CNN by several participants, did not specifically address one of the biggest questions many Democrats have: How did Clinton allow Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania to fall away from the party...?

    If God had retracted the forces of light from this world (the Holy Spirit, angels, Christians), people would soon have gotten lynched by mobs because someone in the mob felt unsure that the person was thoroughly ungodly and the police would have looked the other way thinking to themselves that "it was just one of those types".

    Well, Dr Brown said that sometimes something is so improbable you have to see God at work in it. So he believes God was involved. So I guess it was God's 'fault'. At least according to him. :)

    Maybe it's just mysterious according to carnal wisdom. Maybe that is why they are so upset because they rely on nothing more than that.
