Democrats release contentious autopsy of 2024 presidential campaign

[PATRICK]

8. An ordinary citizen

might get the impression that all the 2008 victory was expended on a compromised health care expansion with a lot given to the financial sector that was the problem we rode in on. Then a lot of the GOP heat attempted to turn this into another Johnson Civil Rights effect where the fuming racists destroyed Dem majorities for a generation. Even that incredible propaganda succeeded partially becuase the appeal to hate is not matched by enough on our side. They dare, we increment and "reach out".
You can almost pinpoint when the blue wave rhetoric surges and the bigly donors start making worried calls and success stalls.

But separately, supposedly our intelligent legal team strong card, why is the actual election system a bleeding wound Dems can do so little about and vulnerable to any imaginable or unimaginable criminal scam the Mafia style GOP wheels out? And acquiescing to the status quo of media filters suppressed to a simple purpose- profiting the GOP? Some of these party problems go back centuries of corrupt or simple timidity in absorbing popular reform movements.
