Excellent interview with @davidshor. "The nationalizing of elections means whenever any elected Democrat goes out and says something that’s unpopular, unless the rest of the party very forcefully pushes back every Democrat will face an electoral penalty."https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/11/david-shor-analysis-2020-election-autopsy-democrats-polls.html …

This entire argument is silly because it's premised on a contradiction: Biden won because of white suburban voters; when one Dem takes a position, all Dems are saddled with that position; non-Biden Dems lost because of white suburban voters. Which is it?

There's no contradiction. The whole point of Biden's candidacy was that it was going to be hard to hang the extremist label on him. And he had an advantage - he was running against Trump. Dems in purple or red districts didn't have that.
