For John, BLUF: This is how gamblers go deep into debt and nations lose wars—they double down on a strategy that isnt going well. Nothing to see here; just move along.

Here is the lede plus four:
Blind to reality and wholly dedicated to partisan politics, Democrats have ignored their major electoral setbacks last week and doubled down on their radical agenda.In the article the veteran non-partisan election analyst Charlie Cook is quoted:The party even refuses to listen to its own strategists, or a Democrat congresswoman who’s been successful in the very places where they received backlash last week.
Rep. Abigail Spanberger, who’s twice won in a suburban Richmond district that was held by Republicans for 40 years prior, is someone with credibility. After the Tuesday shellacking, she told the New York Times “nobody” made Joe Biden president to pursue sweeping legislation similar to former President Franklin Roosevelt’s transformative New Deal, but rather they elected Biden to “be normal and stop the chaos.”
Needless to say, that has not occurred.
Asked on “Fox News Sunday” if Spanberger was wrong for this view, Biden’s senior advisor and former congressman Cedric Richmond surprisingly said she was.
They are pretending they have political capital in the bank when the reality is, they are overdrawn.I see the Administration, and the Democrat Party Leadership in Congress taking a big leap of faith. I am guessing they won't be able to make it to the other side in 2022, or maybe even 2024.
That said, in these United States the side in power manages to alienate the voters, after a while, and we have a reversal of fortune.
