Clinton beat Trump by about 3 million votes, but the election came down to about 17,000 votes in 3 counties in 3 different states.
So, would Susan Rice get him more votes in Ohio? Probably, but I'll acknowledge she might lose him some "BenGhaZi" conspiracy votes.
Val Demings, would she have gotten more votes in Florida? Would Keisha Lance Bottoms have pushed him over the top in Georgia which is polling at a dead heat right now?
Yeah we didn't want a white woman, but does Whitmer push him over the top in Michigan? And Warren was likely the most popular choice across the board.
So, I think there's at least a strong argument that there were some choices that would have been strategically more valuable while also not losing him any votes.
