Who’s talking about gagging? People should say what they want. I’m just saying they should stop pretending it didn’t cost Democrats votes around the country.

Can you point to the evidence for this claim? Any evidence? At all?

Everyone asks for “evidence,” then when that evidence is provided - like focus-group results, and the fact that GOP candidates spent heavily on ads tying their opponents to the slogan - everyone says, “That doesn’t count.”

I guess you can argue that GOP candidates who win in swing districts had no idea what message would resonate with voters, but that seems a little improbable.

In 2018, we were told Dems in these swing districts won because they were moderate. In 2020, they were still moderate - but lost.

Is it really weird to think that it’s a bad idea politically to be associated with really unpopular ideas? That doesn’t seem that weird.

How popular was abolitionism in 1855? Female suffrage in 1905? Ending Jim Crow in 1950? Non-racist immigration in 1960?
