The fundamental problem with this approach is that it assumes that the Democrats need to make juuuuuust the right policy shifts with red state candidates and that will win over those flyover country rubes. It’s never that the party itself needs to have a greater positive impact on those communities or have an organic presence. A pro-life Democrat isn’t going to win them over if they still feel like an establishment robot that came out of a DNC lab in Washington.
