Here's a guy who's likely to run again for president. So what's he do? he speaks up for all Dems an he speaks up in a way that the message is clear and unambiguous.

No doubt his words will get parsed by both the left and the right, but please look at the message. The framing. The terms used. The tone. The unambiguousness. To be sure these words may not be (the collective) your or my message, but surely it is good enough that we can all get behind it.

Lots of our people are capable of this. Lots of our folks are not.

We need to get the ones who can to go out and speak for all of us.
