The interesting question is what tack the democrats should take. If I were a political strategist I'd probably advise them to take the safe route and seize the center. The DNC was awash in flag waving, pro-military BS, so I guess what they're choosing to do is to co-opt the centrists who might normally vote GOP. On the other hand, I wonder if they took a hard line and went Bernie style lefty if they could put a nail in the coffin of this dying party. Part of me is skeptical of co-opting republicans as a strategy, because then what you're left with when you win is a coalition that stands for nothing other then "not Trump."
