That certainly didn't help, but it wasn't the reason she lost. Everyone saw her campaign (rightly, I think) as "business as usual" and assumed that basically they were voting Bill back in to the White House. What? Did you think he'd restrict himself to such decisions as what carpet should be in the Oval Office? She was arrogant, overconfident to the point of well, fatally underestimating the malleability of the voters, didn't campaign where she should, campaigned where she shouldn't have, and basically gave the impression (again, turned out to be the right one) that she thought she would just walk the election. It was a foregone conclusion, so why bother? Except of course that it wasn't.
