    Most Democrats have their fingers in the air trying to figure out what to say to appeal to the largest number of their constituents.

    Do their constituents like socialism? Are they scared of it? What will make you like me more?

    They somehow still haven’t figured out that what a lot of people really want is someone to actually lead.

    I get it. In one sense listening to your voters is good. But you don’t have to be so desperate about it, and you’ve gotta try to do what’s best for your people without checking to see exactly how much they might like it at every turn.

    More Democrats should have called this out for the bullshit it is.
