Discussion with James Carville: things don't look great

Don't see signs of a huge youth vote.

Democrats have not been solid on messaging, especially economic. Candidates should be taking cues from Biden's statements on Medicare/Social Security.

Should have leveraged kansas results on economics (Republicans lied when they said they wouldn't ban abortion; don't trust them when they say they won't eliminate SS/MC. (Kevin McCarthy on forcing a Govt shutdown; Rick Scott on DSCC plan)

Needs to be an assessment a to what messages get through to voters.

10-15% of Democrats make 80% of ,message noise.

Doing better in red states where candidates need to compete (OK-AK). Blue State democrats get lazy and don't focus on issues outside of liberal base voters.

Nevada at risk because of DSA taking over the most successful Party in the country.

Haven't heard much from DNC. Party has to do better. 26% shift in suburban white women. We have to rebrand ourselves to be relevant to most voters. Do liberal activists chase more people away than they bring in? Don't use "woke"; it has an honorable history (to the 20s), but over-educated white people made the word into something negative.

Voice of our party is being generated by over-educated white people. huge mistake to have left-wing call for negotiations with Putin over Ukraine. Issue is a simple one for people to understand.

Abortion issue had some strength in the summer, but lost energy. Needed to leverage Republican position on other issues rather than keep as a stand-alone issue.

In the context of DU, Star Member brooklynite would be quite justified to have a superiority complex. :rotf:  :tongue:

He tries so often to bring DUmmies into some place close to reality that I'm continually amazed he hasn't met DU's banhammer-wielding Jack Ketch.

"Rebrand" = "lie about what democrats stand for and will do when in power."

Not only that, with one party rule, they go crazy.  They think they have a magic wand that can conjure any foolish thing they wish, like "everyone in NY will have an electric car by 2030!"  Never mind about the grid, or that few people can afford the $85K price tag. 

I soooooo wish that NY would turn, at least a little.
