The bar wasn't lowered; there is no longer any bar.
            I don't think so. Far more people inclined to vote for a Republican will vote for whoever has the "R" next to their name. That Hillary couldn't muster enough votes from people who probably voted for a Democrat for president in every other election in the 2000s shows that people who lean left actually care about who is running. My guess is there is no one who would run as a Republican and fail to get at least a third of the vote. That simply would not be true of the Democratic party candidate

              don't overthink this. hillary suxd. worst candidate ever. again for the 100th time people hated her (yes yes yes. loved in California land. but broad hatred lost her a number of close states. anyone else would have been able to squeeze out a state or two)

                  That's my point. People hated her so people didn't vote for her. There were counties in Ohio that Obama won by 20 points in both 2008 and 2012 that Hillary could not carry. Because people who voted for a Democratic candidate time and again did not just pull the lever next to the name with the "D" next to it. Lots of people hated her and did not vote for her. Lots of people professed similar feelings about Trump and voted for him anyway because too many Republican leaning voters will vote for whoever has the "R" next to their name.

                    Neil Young's expert analysis:

                    “Maybe this election thing needs to be looked at again, maybe there’s something wrong with it, maybe there’s something wrong with the candidates, the choices, the availability, the forum that it is, the two-party system, the whole thing. Maybe the whole thing is a little bit off and people are looking at it, that’s why there wasn’t any interest,” he says. “Many people when Bernie went away just went away. They said, ‘He was the only one we liked, the other ones we don’t like and we’re not gonna vote for something we don’t like cause we felt what it was like when we were backing somebody we really believed in.’ So that’s what happened in my view.”

                      This is an amazing story about the Obama's eldest daughter. I had no idea she had done this.

                          A question... and I should know this... Abe Lincoln was a very progressive Republican, almost radical, at a time the democrats were very conservative. When did the parties switch philosophies? Was it gradual or sudden?
