He was a vicious war criminal who spread mass death across the Middle East. "Restrained and proper yet charged with quiet energy"? This is fucked!

Ugh. Let healthcare skyrocket, it'll be a political win to elect more Spanbergers next year maybe. Dems held it together for 40 whole days—what more can we expect? This was great messaging! (Esp. the cave—that'll show Dems it's worth turning out.)

Making a cynical bet that he and the establishment can shank and tank Mamdani, and that the non-endorsement will look retroactively good.

No process excuses (50 Senators) for failure will ever fly. Look at Trump, he just does. He bullies GOP into unanimity and acts unilaterally if they won't. That's why he gets away with dementia. You may have no complaints but voters last November and in 2022 sure did.

If you didn't care about the Child Tax Credit and not driving 4 million kids into poverty overnight, yes. What happened to paid family leave and expanded Medicare? Did they raise the minimum wage, flat since 2009? This is what people cared about. Bipartisan Infrastructure was politically worthless.

They ditched BBB in Nov. 2021, caving to Gottheimer and delinking it from BIF because they thought a bipartisan bill signing would save them after McAuliffe lost. That ruined the admin, so did rejecting court expansion.

Governor @gavinnewsom.bsky.social too busy posting corny all-caps Trump parodies that don't land and podcasting with wingnuts to defend diversity.

Nice article but the Dems' big bet on security moms is a complete disaster. Not the mom part, the security. I'm convinced the gratuitous Navy pilot reference in every Sherrill ad is actively repelling voters. There is no persuadable voter who cares about a military or CIA background.
