"Had she been able to hold it in, she might be president"

If Bill had been able to hold it in, she might also be president. It is what it is.

I don't think she actually made anyone switch votes to a degree that influenced her election- people who hated Hillary had already made up their minds to hate her. These are, after all, folk who swallowed the idea that she was involved in a pedo ring in the basement of a pizza place that didn't have a basement... I think she might have further energized the republicans- but I'm not really sure. I don't remember what the polls did after the remark- but I do know what they did after Comey. And I have seen the graphs of how the Russian influencers targeted the weak minded and foolish- and how that translated into election votes.

I'm still not sure the election was even valid. But after the Gore selection, I don't expect much form this sad old banana republic. Nor, honestly, do I care much any more. I'll vote as long as I am supposed to. But I've written off America. It's kind of dead to me. Heck, with Comrade Bone spurs at the button, maybe it will be dead for all of us soon.
