People are saying Biden won by having a moderate message, so progressives need to be very careful. But there is no evidence Biden won by having a moderate message. Based on Congressional races results, there’s just as good a chance he would’ve won by a bigger margin being bolder.

45 million voters hold college loan debt that’s crippling them. How would it have been bad politics to tell them that if you elect us we’ll cancel those debts? Especially since a good argument is made for how much it would stimulate the economy for the money to be in their hands!

Um, try "by a fucking landslide".

The only reason Biden won is because we had the corporate media screaming "Orange Man Bad" for four years.

“President is Bad” message didn’t help down-ballot Dems who had no message (or Republican-lite message).

Stay with moderate message!

Wrong, he cheated.
I think it's clear he won because progressive @BernieSanders did so many rallies and interviews for him and because his whole platform was "I'm not Trump."

Yes...Yes....

Green New Deal for climate and jobs, eliminating college debt, healthcare, housing, ending homelessness, liveable minimum wage aren't socialist. It's about fairness. Those who advocate those policies all won. The fight for fairness and equality doesn't stop now Biden has won.
