Oh and his point that the right are focusing on state elections while the Democrats are largely dropping the ball is absolutely correct but the idea that you can win elections, any elections, by retreating from issues that the right has successfully turned into a minefield is like starting a marathon by shooting yourself in the foot. If people don't believe that the Democratic Party will materially benefit their lives then how are they supposed to win elections and gain power so that they can materially benefit people's lives?
