Daily Beast - Before apologizing for using a private email server as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton’s campaign held a focus group. The New York Times
reports Clinton’s aides showed footage of a contentious press
conference to a group of New Hampshire independents and Democrats last

the Times reported. Days later, Clinton inched forward with an
apology for “confusion” over the private email issue. On Tuesday,
Clinton apologized for using a private server in an interview with ABC News. “I could have—and should have—done a better job answering questions earlier,” Clinton said in a statement.

“The same force and energy that is giving a lift to Donald Trump is dooming Hillary Clinton, and that is authenticity. Experience does not matter to [voters]. What matters is you appear genuine,” GOP strategist Eric Ferhrnstrom tells the NYT.
