"It's the economy, stupid" is all you need to know.
is "when they go low we go high" a winning strategy for democrats in 2022?
It seems to me this has been a general thought many, if perhaps not all, dems have kept in mind over the past few years. While the GOP continues in broad incivility against libs and leftists, we broadly seem to be remaining civil and policy focused in most of our messaging.
It seems to me the expectation that dems are polite is hurting us. Because any time we veer off that we now get hit with the "so much for the tolerant left" or "is this what you meant by 'we go high'" or similar things. Basically, the expectation that we will be polite and civil and policy focused may be a liability.
But at the same time, it also gives us a moral high ground for winning over centrists and on the fence voters and absolutely made an impact in the 2020 election, that even a gruff guy prone to off the cuff remarks like Biden seemed centered and sane compared to the raving loon on the right.

Yes, and the Democrats need to be hitting back at the media and GOP narrative that it's all about inflation. They need to stress the record-low levels of unemployment, over and over again.
This one pocketbook issue will doom the democrats in November. Then throw in the rest................
"It's the economy, stupid!" This famous phrase was coined by Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign adviser James Carville and it later became the de-facto slogan for the entire campaign.
US inflation highest in 40 years, with no letup in sight
Inflation soared over the past year at its highest rate in four decades, hammering America’s consumers, wiping out pay raises and reinforcing the Federal Reserve’s decision to begin raising borrowing rates across the economy

Get real. There is no lower the right can go.

If that were true biden's poll number would reflect it. Inflation is not the economy. The economy itself is doing fine, it's all the uncertainty around the world, plus covid adding to so many already really stressed industries and speculation on wall street makes all of it worse. If anything we have a labor shortage, there is no worldwide shortage of oil and yet everything is going up and up and up."It's the economy, stupid" is all you need to know.
I think the best strategy for Democrats would be to get a time machine and go back and undo all the stuff they did for the last 5 or so years.
No defund the police, no Covid shut down and mask religion, no botched Afghanistan withdrawal, no war on US oil and gas production, no war on parents speaking out at school board meetings, no inflationary spending, no Joe Biden, no Kamala Harris, no Nancy Pelosi. If they could undo all that maybe they’d have a shot.
Or maybe they could clone Donald Trump 435 times and have the Republicans run one clone in every congressional district.
You guys need to add a little fiber to your diet. Pooping doesn’t have to be painfulI'm in Tucson. Nothing short of a corkscrew on the end of a sewer snake will help.
