Hm. Maybe that's true. Doesn't exactly get the people fired up, but perhaps true. I think... people need assurances you won't move *backwards* on their issues, a la 1994 Crime Bill, "superpredators," et al.
"We won't move as fast as you want but we'll keep moving"---even when people are suffering and dying while you move slow---is still a better pitch than "Idk we might just do what your ideological opponents want bc we want their votes, and like forget y'all."
And I think... there's as much trust gap to make up between, say, male Dem pols and feminists, straight Dem pols and queer folks, as there is trust gap to make up between Dem pols and evangelicals. How do you say "we're doing this to win, but trust me, I'm still with you?"
Yeah, neither are the case I'd make. I do think i cover this territory in my pieces in The Atlantic and Politico so I should probably just let those speak for themselves for now
At some point, there has to be a bit of pragmatism for a party that's lost over 1000 state legislative seats, the Presidency and House and Senate. Running far Left as fast as you can might satisfy the base, but if you're getting shellacked in elections, what diff does it make?
