You’re right the party apparatus becomes a barrier. They wayyy overplayed their hand with her. I’m sure that election after election they told themselves “it’s more important to win this time than pave the way for the future.”
And I’m sure that election after election she told herself “I’ll keep serving as long as the voters tell me to,” probably willfully oblivious to the fact that the fix was in on her behalf.
