Left-wing discourse seems to demand at least stated fealty to "field organizing for turnout" as a strategy. IDK why exactly. I guess it sounds...lefty.

Watching leftists adopt Obama and Hillary’s organizing model so enthusiastically has been really weird

They seem to think, anyway, that Hillary Clinton abandoned a turnout strategy for persuading moderate Republicans.

This is why the aftermath of 16 is so troubling. There is so much misinformation on what happened, and that has distorted views on the way forward, when I would argue with full knowledge of what went wrong the path forward is pretty obvious.

What in your opinion is the best single narrative about the 2016 result?

You gotta persuade people and turn them out. Gotta do both. There isn’t a silver bullet.

Not really. Talking more mechanics of the whole campaign. The party as a whole gave up on persuasion based on a series of point in time tests of it. No one thought through what would happen over time because of that.

Well David and I have been preaching about Persuasion since before the 16 election. No one wanted to listen.

You should have focused on mobilizing more of your adherents! But more seriously, thank you for this perspective.
