She needs to just go away. Nobody wants to hear from her.
For such a remarkably smart and charismatic person, she has an uncanny knack for presenting things in the most damaging way possible for Democrats. It's not what she says, it's how she says it. Like when she basically said her goal was to put most of the rural population in PA out of work. She was trying to say we need to transition to clean energy, and she could have said "by creating new, high-paying jobs in rural areas that right now depend on coal." Or something; I'm not a speech writer. And politicians lie constantly; all she needed to assuage her conscience was a vague plan to do a feasibility study on locating wind farms in coal country, or locating solar panel manufacturing plants there, and retraining coal miners. But what she said was almost literally "we're going to stop using coal," which, if you're a coal miner, sounds exactly like "I want to destroy your livelihood."
She'd have made an excellent president; she's quite a bit more center than Obama, but she'd still have done a fantastic job. If only she could stop putting her foot in her mouth and giving conservatives soundbites to sink her with.
You're getting downvotes, but I'm inclined to agree with you: she tends to do the party more harm than good.

Hell, I would have been happy if she bothered to campaign in "flyover states" that she was weak in as much as she preached to the choir in stronghold states. And, you know, not push trump as a pied piper candidate.
