Clinton wasn’t a progressive candidate. You know that, right? She and Obama were pretty damn centrist.
She was as centrist as she was progressive. Neither of these things were her problem, her problem was 10,000 pounds of baggage, being nearly universally hated, and the perception that she was a snake.
Look at Joe Manchin and tell me that guy doesn't fucking steamroll Trump. That's a centrist candidate. That puts the Democrats in the position to win 2020, 2024, AND 2028.
Biden doesn't do that. If he wins, he's going to be 78 when he takes office. No way American's vote for an 82 year old man in 2024. Democrats have an oppotunity to ride the anti-fascist wave through 2028, and instead they want to scream, "muh socialism" at the top of their lungs. It's like the ultimate avatar of their party; long-term consequences be damned.
