35. There have been plenty of "admissions"

The way to solve this is to try out some new strategies at the state/county/local levels to see what "works".

We keep trying to RUSH things by focusing too much on Presidential years, while skipping over mid-terms and off-year elections, in some effort to "national" messaging that ignores our states.

Remember the oft-cited Howard Dean "50 State Strategy"? It's what helped to elect Barack Obama.

The "governing majority" is NOT coming out of some "national" election. It's coming from multiple state elections and together, they will form "the majority".

If anything, having the number of lawsuits that states have filed against 45 the past year, there are over 20 state governors and/or Attorney Generals who have been working together headlining those suits, and thus getting to know each other and the variations that are happening in these states.

I suggest you look to your state and local parties because they are going to be the ones driving what the "national" message will be IN TWO YEARS.
