Obama campaign advisor and current CNN contributor David Axelrod weighs in on comments made by 2016 Democratic party nominee for president Hillary Clinton on May 2nd about her electoral loss. Clinton said she lost in part because of FBI director James Comey and "Russian WikiLeaks." Axelrod said Clinton needs to do more "introspection." He also noted that Comey didn't force her not to campaign in key states like Michigan.



"Jim Comey didn't say to the Clinton campaign don't campaign in Michigan, you know," Axelrod said. "Jim Comey didn't say don't go to Wisconsin once after the Democratic convention, and those are states that she lost by very, very narrow margins, and so there are a few things that if they had just done a little bit differently would have been I think decisive and would have allowed her to win despite Jim Comey, so a little more introspection. Maybe we'll have to wait for the book, but a little more introspection is probably in order."
