>crossover Republicans are not going to vote in significant
>numbers for a Democrat.

all the previously red districts and counties that went blue for the 1st time in decades or ever.

george hw bushs former district went d in 2018 for first time since 1966.

eric cantors for first time since 1970.

newt gingrichs for first time since 1978.

much coveted va-10 for first time since 1980.

the entire orange county ca (former reagan republican stronghold up through 2016) went *completely* dem in 1 election cycle.

new dem governor in *kansas* (and kentucky in 2019).

arizona with the 1st dem senator in 30 years and 1st majority dem congressional house delegation in 50 years.

you think those happened solely because of democrats voting in those areas? lol.

those were all due to coalitions of dems, indies, and *repubs* and powered by *moderate* candidates (like *39* of the 40 house majority flips).

if you can point me to *any* evidence that a bernie-style 'progressive' has won in the last 3 years in these close/competitive types of environments where you need to successfully put together a broad alliance of voters from the *entire* ideological spectrum...i would be happy to see it.

bernie is running a 30% campaign with no desire to appeal to the broader mainstream dem electorate. and he isnt even bringing many new voters into the 'political process' *hand circles*...which is his entire pitch for why he believes he is the best general election candidate.

people like beto and stacey abrams were more successful turning out new voters in a *midterm* year than bernie has done in a *presidential* year.

where is this political revolution taking place for sanders that has yall projecting so much confidence in his general election chances?
