Thanks, Tom. Who will it be? There are several up-and-comers I think are promising or better. Pete is one of them. Then there’s Governor J.B Pritsker, Senator Elissa Slotkin, Governor Moore, Gov. Gavin Newsome, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Gov. Shapiro, Rep Ocasio-Cortez, Sen. Chris Murphy, undoubtedly a few more. But the Dems badly need some new ideas that will bring back voters who have abandoned them over the last several years. So far I see little. It’s not enough to be smart and articulate. Bashing Trump isn’t going to do it. They need to tell people what they are going to do for them.
Great
Fantastic essay, Larry. You are a super historian. This message is so timely. Who will it be? Pete?
