I'm talking about the moderate conservatives who hate Trump, and maybe aren't too involved in politics. They are more traditional but would vote for progressive policies if they were packaged correctly. It's a sad state of the country, but with Newsmax and Fox brainwashing people, that's the only winning strategy.

    They. Will. Never. Vote. For. A. Democrat. You're alienating your base in order to chase a bunch of nazis to the right.

    You can't say you want someone who is "decently progressive" and then pretend we can't nominate a woman because we don't want to turn off moderate conservatives. It's nonsensical.

    Her gender wasn't even a serious line of attack during the campaign and she went so hard to the center she was losing votes in the cities, the core source of Democratic votes.
