"Running moderate candidates in swing seats gets tried all the time. It works well though it would work better if the national party was closer to the average voter. By contrast in their entire history of existence Justice Dems and Our Revolution have never flipped a seat."

"Is it honestly too much to ask for the DSA to flip a single Republican seat in a congressional election before opining on what Democrats are doing wrong Until that happens what are we even arguing about"

"@DanAncona Do you think that Behn refusing to disavow defund gained or lost her votes at the margin Happy to talk in more depth about the race but just want to clarify what you think about that first"

"Split Ticket's numbers give him a lot of credit in 2018 I think because Cruz was an incumbent. But tbh his raw result (-2) was pretty close to what you'd get if you applied uniform national swing to the 2016 TX result using the 2018 national environment (uniform swing would've predicted -4.5ish). And I think Cruz is a below replacement candidate. So I think the 2018 campaign was pretty good but not as good as it maybe initially looks"

"Behn is on track to lose by X% in an R+22 seat. That XX% overperformance is the worst of any Dem in a House special election in 2025 so far. A better candidate might not've made the difference but nominating Behn is not what a party trying its hardest to win would've done"

"For the record: Some things that are anti-democratic: - Voter fraud - January 6th Some things that are not anti-democratic: - Trying to convince people of your ideas by posting them online - A candidate deciding to drop out of a primary & endorse a different candidate they like"

"Bernie Sanders supporters spent a lot of time publicly (and I imagine privately) arguing that Elizabeth Warren should drop out of the 2020 primary and endorse Bernie. Famously she did not. But if she had that would not have been "anti-democratic""

"Might've been winnable with the right candidate but Aftyn "I'm a very radical person" Behn was not it :/"

"TN-07 was R+21 in 2024. The biggest special election flip by Democrats in the last XX years was in an R+23 seat in rural Mississippi in the spring of 2008. Here's an ad from that race by Travis Childers the Democrat who flipped the seat. Different tone from Aftyn Behn"

"Real ones remember when Manchin got McConnell to allow the CHIPS Act to go to the floor in return for killing the IRA. and then the second it passed announced he'd be supporting the IRA. Cuellar following a time honored tradition of moderate Dems switching-up on Rs"

"Lots of people are dunking on this by pointing out that you have to flip Trump voters to win a state he won by 14%. That is of course true. But beyond that: Democrats who don't vote are more conservative than Democrats who do vote The entire premise here is misguided"

"@gelliottmorris I honestly have no idea and find the level of vulgarity with which left-wing people frequently respond to empirical points I make online to be very odd. Curious if you have a theory for this behavior"

"It's amazing how many people have committed themselves to theories of politics that are incompatible w/ the existence of Phil Scott & Laura Kelly. Call it the Scott-Kelly test. If your theory can't explain why chill moderate Govs often win big in tough terrain it's no good"
