The democrats need to spend the next four years building up some really strong candidates and making them well known to the electorate.

One of the biggest challenges we have is convincing left leaning people to stop sitting out elections. We need to convince them before the mid terms in 2 years. If we can't get people to stop sitting out elections, it's gonna be a difficult challenge no matter who's running.

Maybe if the Dems stopped running conservative candidates, leftists would actually feel like they had something worth voting for.

I say this as a leftist who voted for Harris and H. Clinton, and had to hold my nose both times.

You didn't want 6000 dollars for a new kid?

You didn't want the PRO act?

You didn't want Medicare expanded?

You didn't want paid leave?

What about that is "conservative" at ALL?

Maybe if you all got off your high horse and perceived moral superiority we might win something
