God, I feel clichéd for saying this again and again, but this is what I hate about many Democrats. Red-state democrats are still people. In many of these states, we hold house seats, or have in the past. We dissolve any state parties, we kiss our chances of ever winning the house goodbye. We need to try to win rural voters, not give up.
And hell, we also can basically say goodbye to the Senate, because where the hell would we be without our Manchins and Heitkamps? It's a terrible strategy both in terms of winning houses of Congress and in terms of attitude. This rhetoric annoys me immensely. Don't fall in this trap. We don't want another Akin moment to happen to some red-state senator, only to find ourselves with no legitimate candidates and a wasted opportunity.
