Dunno, Video Game Progressives are focused on the wrong boss fight.
Look, they've already tried to primary Manchin, and failed.
They tried running their candidate in a general against Caputo, and failed.
They dont have a strategy to win in red states.
They all cheered when Heitkamp and McCaskill lost their seats, with no plan to replace them.
Anyways, Ron Johnson (WI) and Pat Toomey (PA) are very gettable seats. Focusing on the Sun Belt seems like a good investment. Cal Cunningham had a shot at winning, if only he waited six months to cheat on his wife. Richard Burr, Tim Scott, and MArco Rubio should all be vulnerable now.
Take a lesson from 2020. Stop the
dumb 30% Strategy of trashing the center of the party to the point of alienation.
Take a win, and call the American Rescue Plan, one of the most progressive enactments ever passed by the United States Congress. Frustrating as Manchin’s last-minute trimming was — and, apart from the $15 minimum wage that regrettably was well short of 50 votes, it didn’t alter the shape of the bill significantly. This is far beyond most optimistic projections just a few months ago. Let alone a year when people were calling Biden dead or missing.
Take credit and emphasize the really good parts. This what most adults do when they go for new or more work.
Though I'm starting to doubt the adulthood of Very Online People.
