[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Democrats in Washington increasingly believe progressives cost them the election. They're not wrong. Progressives did cause Democrats to lose everything - the White House, the Senate, the House, State Houses. But Democrats are wrong to block AOC from meaningful leadership positions. She's young, charismatic, sharp, articulate, and when she focuses on things like health care and corruption, she's terrific. Everyone is running away from LatinX, trans, DEI, restorative justice, and all the other progressive nonsense. AOC is smart enough to realize what works and what doesn't work. And she is gifted and has a large national constituency. Democrats should have allowed her to be a voice in the party as it moves on. Propping up the gerontocracy isn't going to win Democrats any elections either.   [/quote]

What Democrats don’t get is that voters respond to politicians that are bold with convictions that say what’s on their mind and are willing to take risks. Americans love bold leadership. We care a lot less about the details.[/quote]
