      The strange thing is that the campaign strategy Sanders will have if he's the nominee will be more conservative than the one Clinton followed in 2016. Sanders will try to re-create the old Obama coalition by ginning up young people & POC. Clinton tried to expand into GOP suburbs

      How is that “more conservative”?

      Conservative in the sense of being more prudent. Sanders is going with a proven, winning formula. Clinton tried to create a new formula (expand in the suburbs and make a bid for the sunbelt) and it exploded in her face.

      House races are fought on different map than presidential ones.

          they literally aren't, though. and if you take a look at recent polling in Wisconsin, it's very clear that the Rust Belt/Sun Belt realignment is very much inevitable.

          State level elections aren’t different than district level elections?

          They're fought in the same cities and suburbs, though.

          Seems that way if you only think about it for two seconds. The more congressional districts you win across many states the more likely it is that you'll win the popular vote and get their EC votes. You run up the score in down ballot races as part of your presidential campaign.
