If you seriously thought this was a possibility, you were being quite delusional. There was never a realistic scenario where the dems would get all the power: House Majority, 60 Senate Seats, Presidency
Huh? I never said any of that. You just defined 'destroyed' the way you wanted then called me delusional based on your own incorrect assumption. Good job?
By 'destroy' I meant a large win in the presidential popular vote that would reverberate downticket and help us take back competitive state legislature chambers that we've lost, which is entirely possible even without a landslide. For the Senate, my perfect (and realistic), best-win scenario for Democrats is probably a max of +8 seats, which is still very unlikely right now. For the House, a majority is a huge long shot and we'll be lucky to pick up 20+ seats based on current polling.
So no, 'destroy' meant almost none of what you said.
You can thank, in advance, President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, ex-majority leader Harry Reid, and Chuck Schumer for endorsing/pushing for corporatist Democrats Patrick Murphy (Florida), Ted Strickland (Ohio), and Katie McGinty (Pennsylvania). None of them will win. And this may be the case for Reid’s would-be successor in Nevada.
Guess who else endorsed/pushed McGinty, Strickland, Cortez-Mastro etc? Bernie Sanders.
