Great article. Thank you.  I always appreciate analysis of the exit polls from our elections.  I also put more weight on those articles written after the chaos of the election settles down a bit.  It takes time to look through the data and interpret meaning in voter mood in my opinion. 

Much of what was said, wasn't actually a surprise to me.  I am very disappointed that Trump was elected, but I completely understand how the frustration in the electorate bounced irrationally into his corner.  Hillary was out of touch from the beginning, and many Democrats knew this in their hearts if they had listened close enough.  I saw Bill Clinton speak one time, and he is a fantastic speaker.  He presented his case for why Hillary should be chosen.  I agreed on many of his topics and policy suggestions, but when he was all done talking..., I left wondering why he and Gore did not accomplish more when they had the chance (8years).  Hillary was never going to be the "change" that is needed.
