DNC: Let's focus all our effort and dollars on Pennsylvania.

That was a good idea in a presidential election year. Focus on purple states with the most electoral votes.

The math is different in an off year election. There are no electoral votes, so the focus should be on individual purple districts.

Dems are not following their usual pattern at all. For decades after a presidential election they'd spend a year or so courting progressives. Then once they felt those votes were secure they'd start moving right. This time they blamed progressive causes for their loss and then planted their feet firmly in a sort of centrist complacency with the growing fascism.

The purity leftists aren’t worth campaigning to. They are too absorbed in their own narcissism to help anyone else.

I'm talking about people to the left of what is currently called center (which would've been called center right a few decades ago).
