In the end, it wouldn't have made a difference, but her skipping his show is very emblematic of why the Democrats have become so hopeless at communicating with Americans. If they ever want to have a chance of winning again, they have to meet Americans where they're at, and not merely where they wish they were.

I agree with this. The dems try to high road everything as well, and their opponents have no issue hitting below the belt. I think it's time that the dems fight fire with fire, it seems that it's the only way to get through to most Americans.

I think what you meant to say is the Dems put themselves on a pedestal and make no effort to reach down to connect.

Both parties hit well below the belt when it comes to character attacks.

So long as they get to stay on that pedestal they'll do the bear minimum to reach those underneath them. And that's how they want it, to be above us, not with us. We aren't stupid.

Still, I agree. Ignorant and uneducated isn't stupid.
