This would also have to pass the House, which it would not. I agree with Bernie's statement and respect his choice to put the resolution forth on principle. I do not respect the article author or commentors who are either ignorant of basic U.S. civics, or choosing to be deliberately deceptive in order to place blame solely on Democrats.

  1. The article argues campaigning with Liz Cheney seems to have no effect. Calling it an "electoral fiasco," especially in the headline, clearly implies that it was detrimental in a significant way.
  2. The evidence that the rallies were ineffective is comparing Harris's results against Biden's. This is terrible analysis. This should be at least a difference-in-difference comparison (the difference in the change vs Biden, using similar counties that were/weren't visited). Useful evidence that their analysis actually works would be applying it to strategies they think were positive, and showing the relative improvement there.

An article about how we all need to come together opens with a salvo against all of their allies. Beyond parody

50% of Americans read so poorly that they are unable to perform simple tasks such as reading prescription drug labels

Maybe they could start them off with something easier, like Finnegans Wake

If it was primary research then it should have methodology.

But since the data is "cobbled together" from other sources, then it's by definition secondary research (and should list those sources).

Maybe it was opiates and she counted her epidural as resetting her count

Wyoming citizens count three times as much as California citizens

Like a spider dangled over the fire by a thread.

No I wasn't emotionally scarred by high school American Lit, why do you ask?
