Heather Cox Richardson Chris Coons discuss Democratic messaging as we approach the mid-terms [View all]


(recommend 10:00 to 20:00 minute mark at 1.8 speed)

Summary:
Chris says we need more than just outrage to carry us through.
Democrats had a very detailed plan for what they would do for people in the last two elections.
But message never really got out.
We didn't use soundbites like Republicans did and they have a Right wing echo system.
Democrats need a few concrete simple proposals.
Pick a few that speak to what our core values and priorities are.

My personal opinion is in agreement because we need to take the Senate (which will be harder) as well as the House.
