The Left Needs New Leaders
Kimberley A. Strassel's dissection of the 'Democrats' 'Autopsy' Flop' (Potomac Watch, July 25) provides a comprehensive postmortem of the disconnect between the ideological program of the Democratic Party's leadership and more centrist views of the majority of American voters.
As Ms. Strassel points out, it will require a 'charismatic outsider' to course-correct a party that has been taken over by its left wing and is deeply out of touch with the American mainstream. I can't say who that person will be, but I can recommend the first step that person should take: Kick Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez out of the party. Then assist any of her acolytes who are willing to 'self deport.'
