A 50 state strategy requires a big tent

60. OK...

What's your evidence to support that?

David McCullough’s Truman… Easily verifiable elsewhere.

Why did the Bernie backed candidates lose, in some cases underperforming Clinton, in 2016?

Your best question; lets me put forward the thesis that their message was not fully supported by the national campaign or possible that non-establish Democrats got their shot in areas with the “longest odds”; I grant that this is not entirely adequate!

However, more to the point, your question is a deflection of the bigger question at hand; why have Democratic candidates’ underperformed down-ticket.

(T)his is not 1948.

Nor is it 1992!

The demise of JimCrow means the Democratic Party now has to think about more than white, middle-class men.

Here we are again, I don’t have the energy to even start to unpack this statement!

Let me just state my belief that a commitment of the Party to “stay-the-course” and just do a better job at messaging has not worked yet this millennium and dooms the Party to similar results.
