PITTSBURGH — Gino has been a registered Democrat all of his life. Still is. He voted for Democrats up and down the ticket and even worked for some, beginning with former President Bill Clinton’s reelection campaign in 1996. He voted for former Vice President Kamala Harris in November and said he would have voted for Joe Biden had the former president stayed in the race.
Gino, who asked for his last name to be withheld so he could speak freely, doesn’t support President Donald Trump but is wondering what the heck is going on with his beloved party.
“What is our message?” he asks in frustration, adding, “I am not just talking about what was happening in last year’s election cycle. I mean right now. What are we doing to win over voters who left us? You know, the working class we used to champion.”
A lawyer by trade, he says sending elected officials out on the cable news networks to channel a message like Sens. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) or Govs. JB Pritzker (D-IL) and Tim Walz (D-MN) isn’t the answer.
“Murphy, Sanders, Walz, Pritzker, Crockett, and Ocasio-Cortez all represent states or districts where you don’t really need to win over many Republicans or conservative Democrats to win elections, or any at all. So their messages on social media or on the Sunday shows are all off if you want to win our state or Wisconsin or Michigan,” he said in exasperation, adding, “And you have to win those states to win not just presidential elections but also the majorities in the Senate, House, and governors’ offices.”
Connecticut, Illinois, Vermont, and Minnesota are all states where Democrats are heavily favored in statewide elections. Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s (D-TX) district in Dallas is rated by the Cook Political Report a plus D+27, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) district is rated a D+28.
“These are not the right messengers because their message is one of constant resistance and leaning in on ridiculous positions that don’t appeal to the average voter who used to be gettable for my party,” he says in frustration.
“Right now we are waiting for Godot, and I don’t see that emerging anytime soon,” he said, referencing the Samuel Beckett play about two men debating under a tree while they wait for someone named Godot. Neither man was certain they were even at the right tree.
Rotimi Adeoye said the Godot reference was pretty on point. That’s because his party has engaged in often absurd arguments among itself in the public arena with no one emerging to shine a light on what its purposefulness is for voters.
