Democrats need to stop treating midterms like they are any different from presidential election years. That worked in the party system of the 20th century, but it doesn't work anymore in the polarized party system of the 21st century. They need to run national campaigns every two years. They need to write and promote a coherent national party platform, with concrete promises of what policies they will work to pass after the election if they win. The president needs to campaign just as hard as he does in presidential years. It might help to consider putting on a televised national convention as well, and national televised debates between the party leaders need to be considered as well.
