General Discussion

Translation: “please let us keep our status quo hierarchy just a little while longer so our big donors don’t get scared off and the youngsters force us to do things differently”



Translation: “even though Mamdani is running a successful, popular campaign opposing Republican policies, the failed policies of the current mayor, and promoting popular policies of his own, we cannot unify around his success and momentum. We must reject his scary (to us old school Dem insiders) populism, and instead unify around whatever tired, ineffective themes that will rock the boat the least”.

Nobody should listen to Carville or take him seriously.

If Dems adopt Mamdani’s cheerful populism (not necessarily every one of his exact policies) as the antidote to the corrupt incompetence of the republicans, they will win back the house in a massive blue wave, and the way things are going, winning back the senate becomes more possible every day.
