Way too many Dem congressman have overcorrected. I think a good number of them have been listening very closely to obtuse, highly-paid consultants who take the notion that “people are hurting in this economy” seriously and literally, and what the voters “really want” is for “politicians in Washington to work together”.
Which is effectively nonsense, of course. But it’s an easy delusion to foster.

Yes. Way overthinking. It was all about the candidate. If you had a straight white male under 65 as candidate they would have won. Female candidates leave points on the table. There is a cohort of voters (Dem voters) who just don't want to vote for a female.
