I wonder if Dems always choke in Presidential races because they have people like you as their chief strategists, where vague concepts of noble virtue and ideological purity supersede pragmatism at the most crucial moment.
I can't possibly imagine being so privileged that I could get an endorsement from a former Republican VP during an incredibly close race and my response to him would be "fuck off".
You'd have to be completely and totally ignorant of American politics to think in 2024 this is what the party would do...
What specifically? Choke? Leave it to Democrats to sneak defeat from the jaws of victory. Or do you mean hire an amateur as a political strategist? I agree, but sometimes I wonder.
