Really wish the DNC hadn't tried to run the "does being anti Trump work when trump isn't running" experiment in my home state. They completely misread the room about what matters to Virginia and why they were gaining footholds there. Turns out: swing states are swing states because people are conflicted on the issues. Terry McAuliff didn't do anything to say what he was or what he was about. Making it all about the cult of personality meant traditionally disenfranchised voters weren't given any reason to care one way or the other. All they saw was two white dudes saying Glen Youngkin was identical to Trump. That only fed the portion of Virginians who were voting about the cult of personality and that, DNC, was not a crowd you wanted to mobilize, you complete fucking idiots
