Those darn effective messages

Florida Democrats are unhappy with party messaging.
“Given the fact every Hispanic voter is either directly or [has] indirectly gone through their own experience as a victim of a socialist or communist regime, the potency around the branding of a political party as the second coming of socialism or communism in the United States is very effective,” Miami-based pollster Fernand Amandi said.
. . .
“Donald Trump did not make any bones about what he was running on and voters here said they wanted more of that,” said Raymond Paultre, a consultant aligned with The Alliance, a loosely aligned collection of progressive Florida donors. “That is disheartening.”
. . .
Centrists, who traditionally have made up the party’s base of power in Florida, say a lurch to the left will decisively doom the party’s chances of taking the governor’s mansion in 2022.
. . .
“I’m not a f---ing socialist,” Pizzo later said in an interview. “My life is a manifestation of the American dream. I believe in free markets.”
Maybe you belong to the wrong party?

When they come over to the dark side, they find we're not really the dark side.

It's instructive that Progressive-Democrats and their supporters find telling the truth and keeping promises disheartening.

Centrists, who traditionally have made up the party’s base of power in Florida, say a lurch to the left will decisively doom the party’s chances of taking the governor’s mansion in 2022.

It's even more instructive that the Progressive-Democratic Party actually, and in all seriousness, thinks it's centrist.

All sides are dark from the highest Divine pov.

This is how equality exists. This is how the condescension of The Most High works.
