A lot of people planning not to vote aren’t doing it because the Dem party isn’t to the right enough, it’s that they’re too far to the right in the first place.
If that wasn’t true, Republicans would bolster a 3rd party just to the right of the Dems to syphon off votes instead of a “far left” party. Or they’d at least move back to the center to fight for those mythic middle ground “undecideds”.
Instead they’ve never stopped sprinting right and gained votes overall because they’re embracing their actual extremists.
Meanwhile Dems can’t get a candidate that wants M4A or one that’s against Trump’s border wall.
Crossing those lines costs the Dem.party votes. More than we’re gaining.
Yeah, bad answer, but this close to the election she can’t say anything too decisive for fear of alienating undecideds.
