That’s the message that has to get out. It’s getting late in the game...voting has already started. Chipping away at the black and lower-middle class vote is a good strategy. That’s where the fear of “guilty until proven innocent” leads to lynchings (not all that long ago) and jail time.
References to the effect that Diane Feinstein had “shot herself in the foot” with the late revelations in the hearings did not go far enough. With luck, they probably will get Kevin de Leon elected, and though he is no bargain, destroys the “senior Senator status of DiFi.
But worse for the Democrat party in general, the calculus of the entire election was shifted, and districts that normally would be comfortably Democrat suddenly became much more competitive, and marginally Republican districts then became a little more defensible. The “conventional wisdom” that the Democrats stood a good chance of taking over the House, if not left for dead, certainly got a serious kick in the head. A similar “blue wave” at the state and local levels is also not all that likely to be much more than a ripple.
The Democrats lost the “Mushy middle”, and the reliance on the female vote seems a little over-optimistic.
Democrats cannot count on the surety of the Black vote any more, and fully-employed Hispanics know which their bread is buttered on.
