1. Comey's letters come down unjustly savaging Hillary's image.

And I think that was the most damaging thing to her campaign, coming just 11 days before the election. Right when she was supposed to be turning to positive arguments about her plans, she was put on defense, forced to defend herself without knowing what Comey had. Turns out Comey had nothing. But it tanked her numbers and depressed turnout among her supporters. It was devastating. I remember feeling physically sick to my stomach when Comey put out that first letter.
