That’s highly unlikely in most places under present circumstances.

If we flip the 3-4 seats in NY that flipped republican last time, we retake the house.

We don’t need these so-called moderates to win back the house- they wouldn’t caucus with us anyway.

You appear to be an idealistic dreamer, Dan - hope you don’t mind the cold splashes of reality you’ll get here.
