      He was talking about supporting the re-election of senators from red states who vote yes. Of course they would do so; winning elections is the DNC's function. Stupid question, and equally stupid outrage. Of course, nobody bothers to watch the video.https://twitter.com/ryangrim/status/1045757962533457921 …

      Tom Perez pressed on whether the DNC would back candidates who vote for Kavanaugh. Perez says yes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AGeY8Nk-DE&feature=youtu.be …

      Does he have to pledge up front that he will support them no matter what? Other option could be we’ll wait and see, at least apply a little pressure. Is that so absurd it’s not even worth asking about?

      He was asked the question, tried to stick to why Kavanaugh isn't qualified and then when pressed he gave the obvious answer. Would it be reasonable for the head of the DNC to refuse support for red state Sens because of this vote? I think not.

      Replying to @JoshuaHol

      I think it would be reasonable to say: The process isn’t over, and we don’t know what will emerge, so we’re withholding judgment on that. Just a hint that the party believes in something beyond elections might actually help it win elections.

      Also, you might stop making the DNC into the party. The DNC doesn't believe in anything but winning elections because that's its primary function.

      What's the win-loss record under the group currently running the show? I think it's pretty good.

      Well yes, Michael Steele oversaw the 2010 wave. Sometimes you’re in the right place at the right time.

      So they're bad at winning elections even when they win elections? OK.

      Also the DNC has barely played in these special elections. That’s not really their role. But if you wanna credit Tom Perez with the coming potential wave, ok.

          You're the one who thinks the DNC's management is a very important story worthy of many, many pieces. But if you're saying it's primarily a fundraising org that doesn't set policy or have all that much impact on people's lives, then we're in agreement.

          There's a bottom line here. There's nothing more dog-bites-man than 'party committee will support vulnerable incumbents' -- of course they will -- and if you look at the mentions and quote-tweets on that you'll see unbridled outrage over it, including people with lots of...

          ...followers saying things like, 'what's even the point of voting for Dems?' The disconnect between the substance and response is problematic, IMO. YM apparently varies.

          It sure isn’t due to Keith Ellison.
