Awesome, Nomiki. This helps keep up the pressure on the party to listen to progressives, which it badly needs to do if it’s ever going to start winning again.
Competent candidates don’t care what questions reporters ask because they have good answers even for tough questions. Complaints about media bias usually come down to candidates with weak positions. People with strong policy positions talk about the policies. They only talk about the reporters or make ad hominem attacks when they are losers on the policy.
And, yes, Democrats need to win at the state levels. The party in power at that level in 2020 will redistrict. To get those majorities Democrats need to focus there for the next two cycles. And, with the Republicans overplaying their hand under Minority President Donald Trump, Democrats should be able to wipe out Republicans at that level by 2020. If they don’t have solid majorities in legislatures and own statehouses by then, it means this DNC will have failed.
So, good job. Just talk more to the camera, okay? Get your script right up next to the lens.
