the primaries next year are the first real opportunity we have to begin the process of breaking and rebuilding the dem party into something even capable of thinking about (1) and (2), let alone achieving it. it's on ALL of us to try.

Step aside from even the content. Why are you advising on messaging- just deliver the message. Reminds me of Newsom saying he doesn't know what the Dem party stands for on his podcast. Motherfucker you are the dem party!

I don't think it's lost on Bouie that a returned-to-power democratic party that actually did the things he calls for it to do would be very different from the party as it currently exists in the national legislature, and I think that that's why he wrote that.

the actually existing democratic party isn't the ticket, but neither is any other actually existing organization, but we must build capacity, but that capacity-building can't include addressing a nationwide political organization and calling on it to play hardball? do I have the unstated bits right?
