This is very much not wrong

They can do it IF the party elites are united against it AND their institutions were strong and enforced party decisions. But that’s been hollowed out over the years.

It seems like a few elites have decided to try and just buy it for themselves rather than deal with collective action. I think it’s going to be interesting to see if that’s a solution centrists come to prefer the closer we get

do you meet your own "elites" definition?

The DNC and the Democratic establishment are way less monolithic than many believe, for one. For two, the most obvious factor as I see it is all factions of such are not really enthusiastic or confident in Biden. Someone other than Kerry would be campaigning for him if so!

There's not even been an incremental increase in surrogates, or a few people testing the waters and seeing what can happen. Warren's small entourage of Castro, Pressley, and Haaland is running laps around Joe's surrogates even.

It might be because the non-insurgents, by virtue of being non-insurgent, are being measured in seeing who ends up with the strongest vs. Trump so we can support that candidate, even if it's Bernie. Interesting that the strongest Bernie supporters don't consider this possibility.

Exactly. We don’t insurge. And I’m 100% ok with that.

Or maybe it was oversold how much GOP party elites didn't want Trump. A perception which just happened to help his campaign. It's not really incompetence when the "elites" end up doing absolutely nothing. If they wanted to stop Bernie they'd probably be doing more than nothing.
