You want a 50 state strategy or you want a purist party of dems

1. There's more to it than that....

I want a 50 state strategy. It's the only way to regain control.

But that doesn't mean I want the conservative Dems who represent conservative states or districts to have what essentially amounts to veto power or outside influence over progressive Democratic legislation, which represents the will of the majority of the party and/or the majority of the other elected Democrats.

Republicans manage to win and control and run and govern and pass their conservative agenda even with blue state Republicans. So there's no reason to assume that we need to give in to and cater to the whims of red state Democrats. They are and should be more than welcome within our party, and their demands should be given proportional understanding and concessions to their proportion within the party and among the voters.
