Since he was new, he had zero attachment to How It's Always Been Done. Hell, he didn't even KNOW how it'd always been done. Wasn't Parscale's work, but another example - their closing ad was racially divisive and anti-Semitic, but a powerful argument. Fundamentals. 5/11
Fast-forward to #NC09. @McCreadyForNC seems like a genuinely nice, intelligent guy and someone who would be an excellent Rep. Part of R message against him was "My opponent's allies are clowns." His response? "I'll work with the people calling my allies clowns."

Everyone's going to say "But he closed the gap in a R+12 district." Great, but we have to look at WHY that place is R+12. There's a lot of reasons (like straight up cheating, aka gerrymandering) but also? Voters in that district haven't heard an alternative argument. 7/
And today, $10M later, they still haven't heard that argument. That's a lost opportunity. Next everyone is going to say "he couldn't have run hard left." I'm not suggesting he needed to. There's a TON of maneuvering room between AOC/Bernie and "indistinguishable from the GOP." 8/
Put yourselves in the shoes of a rural or small town NC voter (and remember: lots of rural folks aren't white!) whose community has gotten the shaft from decades of crappy trade deals, big box stores, opioids, and disinvestment. Which story is more appealing to you? 9/11
Persuading the middle vs mobilizing the base is a false dichotomy. Good messages do both. (Truly great messages demoralize the opponent's base, too.) The beginning of this @chrislhayes podcast makes this argument as well as I've seen it made - https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/discussing-democratic-response-stacey-abrams-podcast-transcript-ncna976151 … 10/11
Probably enough ranting for now. We're still losing the Imagination Battle. Not the first time an institution failed a veteran who deserved better, and won't be the last. I hope some learning comes out of it. And as always, much appreciation for @McCreadyForNC's service. 11/11
This kinda blew up and that’s cool, I really appreciate it! I didnt get into it but the past two years have been at times pretty frustrating. BUT nevermind all that. You should listen to this exceptional new podcast by @anatosaurus https://bravenewwordspod.com It’ll make ya smarter!
Also! The thread about What Does Work is here -https://twitter.com/DanAncona/status/1174413690826715136?s=20 …
Thank you. This one sums up the problem very nicely. I wish I knew what to do about it, other than get a fucking clue!

I think I see the problem. More of the “Courage to Compromise”. Corporate Dems are just pathetic.
