Ytlaya posted:I imagine Whitmer basically got the "default choice" vote (both because she's the more mainstream option and because she doesn't have a "foreign" name), which is a huge deal in elections where a big percent of voters won't be that familiar with the candidates (like most local elections and non-presidential primaries). she had a lotta institutional support all the unions endorsed her, along with Emily's list and other Dem establishment PACs, plus a bunch of local Michigan politicians spacetoaster posted:What exactly is the blue wave supposed to do anyway? Keep the democrat party on life support for a while longer? get a new generation of lanyards and consultants on Congressional payrolls so that they can pad their resumes for the revolving door although redistricting happens after 2020, so strong state-level Dem results could help a lot with gerrymandering

LinYutang posted:The Michigan results were truly embarrassing, there was a progressive challenge in nearly every race and only Rashida won The Dem primaries were always a difficult step due to institutional opposition and entrenched interests. It was always going to be a long process and I don't think anyone is convinced that only partial success in the early stages means the movement is doomed to failure unless they really wanted to believe it.

You can't blame left wing candidates for systemic alienation that keeps voters from turning out. Babeuf was right. Bring in the vanguard parties and install a dictatorship of the proletariat.

"well, a nascent left-wing movement that has really only existed for two years didn't manage to defeat the wing of the party with vastly more money, power, connections, and institutional infrastructure behind it overnight. clearly, this means that leftists can never, ever win except AOC I guess and that the left has no choice but to shut up and fall in line behind the party establishment" - an extremely good faith take
