I have no doubt this makes you feel better about the terrible campaign McAuliffe waged, but it is both delusional and self-defeating. Wise up.

Excuse after ridiculous excuse... when are Dems going to simply admit no one wanted what they were selling? People are on to them.
Given that nearly half of Virginia voters cast a ballot for McAuliffe, I’d say a lot of people preferred McAuliffe to Youngkin. You’re acting like the election was a blow-out when in reality Youngkin won by less than 2 points.
McAuliffe was already a governor once. Given the attention span of most voters, that kind of name recognition by itself is often enough to get a big win. The fact that it was even close, let alone a loss for McAuliffe, says that a lot of people weren't exactly thrilled with McAuliffe. It was a blow-out, for all practical purposes.

Democrats blew an easy win with a well known candidate in a state that was sharply trending blue a year ago. But it's okay. I don't expect most Democrats to understand how much they are alienating the middle until after they lose in 2024, hopefully not to Trump.
From day one, no one thought McAuliffe would be an easy win this year. You are rewriting history.
You can get an idea of what people thought from predictit's 90 day chart

McAuliffe was the heavy favorite (and leading in the polls) until the last week or two.
But at this point, I am not surprised at progressives trying to rewrite history so that they don't have to change course.

And now deriding us as racist Karens because we have complained about school closure, learning loss, and the mental health impact of the past 18 months on our kids. My complaints about the schools are not invalid simply because I am a suburban mom, but I guess we aren't allowed to have a voice anymore. For all you woke folks, think about the sexism inherent in that.
Where are you being called “racist Karen” because you complained about school closures?
PP is mixing up her buzzwords. Almost as if she uses the reflexively rather than with a true understanding of what they mean.

Youngkin played the aw-shucks southern gentlemen while the right wing echo chamber pounded CRT and other BS through its media outlets and social media promotion.

You're right -- why WOULD racists want to become actual decent human beings with real morals & ethics, rather than that weaponized version they use touting out God in every argument? 🤔
And there’s the race card on cue. A lot of what the Dems have done makes it hard to believe they support brown children. The messaging is that those kids are too dumb to succeed so we’ll lower the bars and demoralizes the kids. When my kids was in first grade he came home telling me that all the positivity project type stuff was done because teachers don’t think he and his schoolmates can get into college. SMH.
FYI - making CRT a main pillar of your campaign is playing the race card & stoking identity politics. Youngkin still ran a Southern Strategy campaign.
