Just wanna throw my 2 cents in and say I agree with the sentiment. The arguments about Russia, Comey, etc. are valid, but they obscure the fact that we ran a neck and neck race with Trump. It should never have been that close!
As far as the EC argument, I think we need to continue to pursue that. Fact is, Republicans are treating this as a straight up culture war, and they are winning. We have more popular support on our side and should do anything possible to push our advantage. We can't just lay down and play by their rules...we need to fight back.
Perhaps it's better for the Democrats to admit what we are...we're a left wing party. We don't hate socialism, we're mostly lukewarm on "american exceptional-ism", we don't like inequality and survival of the fittest mentalities. The centrism worked in the 90's, but those days are gone.
