[lowkell]

Ditch the "defensive ’embarrassed D’ model"; "paint the GOP as a party of extremists"

1. I believe the Dems are doing that already.

Every ad, every speech Biden gives hits Trump & Repubs incompetance exatcly where it belongs.
They are clobbering Trump with his own words & misdeeds.

Not quite getting her remark.

2. Bitecofer urges Dems to avoid defensive "embarrassed" fiscal conservative campaigns

And run on offense, portraying republicans for the extremists that they are.

She specifically calls out the 14 moderate Dems who voted “no” on limiting Trump’s power to send troops to quell protests in cities.

3. I Can't Disagree With Her

No more wonkiness, no more running from progressive economics, and most of all, attack, attack, attack.
