Hillary at twilight

Was her campaign stop in an Ohio town called Hanging Rock a metaphor -- or a symbol of dogged defiance?

    @KateTX

    There may be a media bias against Clinton-- though I'm hard put to remember a candidate who lost double-digit primaries in a row and was still considered a viable contender. There has certainly been sexism and I think a certain amount of classism in the media coverage (I think some people never have and never will forgive Bill Clinton for being, in their opinion, 'poor white trash made good.')

    The fact remains that Hillary Clinton has not been able to overcome that. She has lost twelve primary contests in a row. She is not putting her message across well and her campaign seems horribly disorganized.

    How would she overcome these obstacles in a general election campaign?
