Putin is an easier scapegoat. Remember: once the Dems found out Comey was investigating the Trump campaign suddenly he became awesome and competent. They wanted him gone before that and said he was incompetent, so you'd think given how important the Russia investigation was to them they wouldn't want someone incompetent in charge, but that would involve using actual logic.
From the liberals I know it seems most of them feel Putin is more responsible for the loss than Comey, but it does seem like Hilary herself considers them equally responsible.
The problem with blaming what Comey did is that he announced to the world the investigation had turned up nothing before election day. Yes there was early voting, but as I recall...a majority of people who voted did so on election day. Why would people thus be turned off by Comey announcing they had found nothing on Weiners laptop?
