Not 'Teflon'

[struggle4progress]

By Eric Levitz

... swing voters want to elect a Congress that will act as a check on Trump; Democrats are 17 points ahead of the president on the question of who "fights for people like me," after being tied with him on that score back in February; and Team Blue has opened up a double-digit advantage on health-care policy ...

... Democratic attacks have convinced most voters that President Trump’s top legislative priority was a bad idea; a Democratic Congress would be better than a Republican one; and Nancy Pelosi's party cares more about people like them than Donald Trump does ...

... should Democrats fine-tune their messaging, and broaden their offerings on economic policy? Absolutely. But if you survey this landscape and come away thinking, The Democratic Party urgently needs new advice because none of its attacks are working, well, then, I’ve got a consulting contract to sell you.

2. Good read. I heard about the Politico article on the radio

It's a tired old trick. First, no woman that I know of has ever been given the "Teflon" label. Second, when you have no WINNING to claim just give people credit for still being there. Lastly, Trump is remarkably unpopular and twisting info around that just isn't going to work.
