The whole article is worth the time to read it through.

It was solid in recognizing the deep trouble Democrats are facing, as evidenced in the continued loss seats in local government. It is the first step at least, to know that you have a problem, unlike some others in punditry still totally clueless.

And. Yet.

The solutions these two provided showed up in the last paragraph - "To start with, emphasize more jobs, not just fairer jobs; and achieve social progress with less social shaming."

They were saying the overall Democrat policies and platforms are the winning combination, they just need less name-calling. And they didn't elaborate of Democrats' idea of 'more jobs' (I suspect more gubmint jobs), which is a losing argument.

Well they’re STARTING to see the problems with their scenarios. They need to then dig down to the next implications, etc.

first, your D party has installed an illegal alien working for our enemies to weaken and undermine our country, for the last 8 years ...and he’s done a very good job at it, too, we have 100 million unemployed Americans while he continues to rush more and more unwanted fake “refugee” IslamoNazi young men of fighting age...into our very neighborho0ods!

and you nominated a world-class CORRUPT CROOK

those are two reasons why the D party lost. Face up to those things and help the rest of us repair all the damage we can.............and nominate loyal, qualified, decent American citizens who are not crooks.....and you will start winning elections again.

It is really just that simple. Don’t face up to the damage your party has done to our country (and working Americans now begging door to door for car washing gigs just to survive).....and you will continue to flush yourselves down History’s Toilet

The Democrats after Hillary’s loss are like the SF Giants after Barry Bonds went down - they long ago lost their identity as a team and don’t know who they are anymore. For years they’ve existed solely to prepare for, and prop up, Hillary. Many of the liberals losing their minds are not faking it - they lived solely for their witch queen and they seriously don’t know what to do now. Many of them also don’t give a damn about politics - any politics. To them all that political stuff was just to get Hillary into power. Overall, the Rats are collapsing, a shell party with no purpose any longer. And their dear leader is running for the hills.

It wasnt that long ago when Pelosi, Schumer and other RAT’s counseled the Republican’s on what was good for the party, all in the best interest of our country of course. I’m not interested in returning the favor but it would be sweet if we had one surrogate to go on the Sunday shows and take the same tact - suggesting what the Democrat party needs to do to improve itself and ingratiate itself with the country - imagine the responses!

Democrats are in their worst shape in terms of officeholders at the state and federal level since Reconstruction.

Even the extreme leftist admit it. Biggest landslide in modern American history!

They’ll navel-gaze for a while, then continue with the Full Frontal Socialist cr@p.

They HAVE been as co-opted as we have been by the GOPe.

However, the Kennedy and Reagan Democrats are MORE than welcome in the Republican Party.

Come To The Dark Side; what have you got to lose? ;)

If Dhimmicrats could actually fix something, they would fix something they control - like Chicongo, Baltimore, St. Louis, Newark, etc. They have controlled some of these cities for generations.

Let them show how their policies work in Detroit or Chicongo, and then roll them out to the rest of the nation.

Oh, wait, they have rolled those policies out, but they are failures.

The demorats have promoted a muslim Marion Barry to the presidency. Turns out the smell of BO was far worse then they thought. Using the African model, you get an African society with crime against white Americans seen as some kind of a virtue.

It’s a start - but I don’t think they’ve thought it through yet. The party is destroyed. Their causes are left naked and vulnerable. Everything they think they’ve won over the last 8 years will be washed away...and turn 180 degrees in the opposite direction. Heads are going to be exploding for four years on issue after issue.

If I were in the EPA, IRS, DoEd, PP, etc. I would start looking for a new job. If I was part of “her” campaign I’m already looking for work. The Wikileaks exposed your back stabbing on each other. They have no leadership, it must be causing levels of infighting like we’ve never seen. If the lobbyists leave too, or are rendered irrelevant via tax law, the money dries up too!

You could literally white a book about the consequences to everything democrat, past, present and future. It’s more like an earthquake rippling through time.

If they give up the public shaming, they got nothing.

the reason Hillary lost,
is that she failed to call Trump
a racist often enough.

Anderson Faggot just bailed on SHRILLARY’s live speech at the “Childrens Defense Fund”.

She obviously is off the steroids or whatever drugs they were pumping her full of, she looks GHASTLY.

PISS OFF SHRILLARY!, and all of the MF’s that voted for you too.!!

Anderson Fag is back from commercial, CNN won’t cover her last speech!

Anderson interviews Megan Kelly and then they just played a minute montage of the ARCHCRIMINAL sans makeup and UPPERS!

She obviously intends to look pitiful to blunt her UPCOMING INDICTMENT.

LOL

Good luck with that BITCH!

It’s pretty simple, really. My advice and it’s free.

“Stop hating your country and everything it stands for.”

Until they do that, they’re just whistling past the graveyard.

So have they conceded that communism doesn’t work in America? That’s why they’re losing. Americans don’t want to be ruled by elites.

On social policy, Democrats have to practice what we preach: tolerance. Social policy, thankfully, is the place where all facets of the party are in harmony. The fight Democrats have led to fully include lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and immigrants in our society, to protect a woman’s right to choose, and to stand for sane gun laws and holistic policing and criminal justice has been a unifying force for Democrats, not a source of division as it was in the 1990s.

They still don't get it. Their form of "social justice" is a zero-sum game built around resentment, marginalization, and outright hatred toward the middle class, racist hatred toward its asian and white components, sexist hatred against its male component. You can't build a coalition by picking out enemies and uniting against them. You can pick a fight, that's all.

There is a vision of a united country where everyone has the same rights and obeys the same laws, but it's nowhere close to Democrat-land. Until it is, they will fail.

Wake up, Democrats: We’re in big trouble, and this is how to fix it

Can't fix stupid.

But, if you insist, start by recognizing that socialism has NEVER worked, any time, or any place. If democrats won't admit that simple fact, then, they'll be forever losers, even if they gain some political victories along the way.

Secondly, you must admit that, the problem with the world is NOT the U.S.

Thirdly, a country without borders is not a country at all.

Fourthly, big government is NEVER good for any country.
