This is going to scare people but, as many people said with Mamdani, what the American Left really wants is Obama But Real
the entire centrist twitter election sphere is purely grievance based. no policies, just rage. they think because the "gotcha" or "this you?" style posting gets engagement and likes, it reflects reality in a meaningful way. the algorithm cooked their brains

both sides of the Hong argument need much more epistemic humility. antis need to acknowledge that the concrete evidence for their "unelectable" attack needs fleshing out. pros need to acknowledge that her electability is a legitimate concern instead of dismissing it outright

I'm not being snarky and this isn't aimed at Matt's post, which is correct, but another way of saying this is that people are mad at Bernie & AOC for "doing politics," which also is behind some of the handwringing over a DSA "takeover" of Democrats. Revealing IMO

the crazy thing is that nothing that Francesca Hong is doing is even all that exceptional. shes just the only candidate willing to actually do the work needed to run a campaign.
I took a look at the number of canvass events on Mobilize for Dem Wisconsin Governor campaigns.
Here's the distribution.
🟧Francesca Hong: 50
🟦Joel Brennan: 1
🟥Mandela Barnes: 0
🟥Kelda Roys: 0
🟥David Crowley: 0
One of these is an electable campaign. The rest aren't.

Abdul El-Sayed says the outside spending for Haley Stevens is an attempt “to corrupt this election in a way that the Democratic Party, frankly, should be bigger than”
Also says Stevens’ campaign has “no excitement on the actual ground”:
“Instead of worrying about $50 million of outside spending to build a crutch for a campaign that has no excitement on the actual ground, we’re building a movement of people”

We're well on our way to getting the government that we deserve. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Reminder that Trump personally lobbied for them to be freed from the Romanian jail system
All of these centrists suddenly hopping on Stevens and talking about how she’s an awesome candidate are the fakest people ever she was getting five likes per video for a solid year
Jan 6 terrorist Jake Lang tried to crash our canvass launch. Here’s how real Americans responded:
