Democrats have no message and no leadership right now.
This. Trump sucks isn't enough. It might be enough to snag the house, but not the senate or presidency. The democrats flopped in 2002/2004 in part b.c Bush sucks wasn't enough. They were successful in 2008, as they had a message! Yes, it was see through, but so what? Slogans got trump elected.
They have to come up with an agenda and a message, and a way to convey that message. They need compelling spokespeople to talk about things other than Russia.

Well - it was still, "We're not W!" Now, couple that with just how bad W. had been, Obama's charm and demographic novelty - and THAT was a winning combination.
One that will be difficult to replicate, IMHO. The Dems have a clear identity crisis. If they pivot back to the white working class, they're literally turning their backs on the identity politics monopoly they've worked half a century to cultivate. If they double down on identity and victim politics, I think they continue to lose ground.
Again, JMHO.
