Republicans said the same thing in 2018, that Democrats nominating "extreme" candidates would somehow save them...which didn't happen.

In some cases it did. Kara Eastman blew a perfectly winnable race for example by being a poor fit for her district.
Eastman only lost because the DCCC foolishly triaged the race after their preferred candidate lost the primary. She obviously would have won a D-trending, anti-Trump suburban district otherwise.

While Republican candidates certainly aren't good, the problem isn't really ideology, but more of lack of political experience.
