My point isn't "progressive ideas will never ever win in this state," it's that Sanders doing so well in the state in 2016 inspired some over-confidence - the idea that his agenda was already popular in WV. The decisive Sanders voters there were anti-Clinton voters. — PolitiTweet.org

This point always pisses people off, bc Sanders winning WV was a major 2016 triumph... but it was a very weird coalition. Per exit poll, half of the WV Dems who voted for Sanders in the primary said they'd vote for Trump even if Sanders were the nominee. https://t.co/wSsgo7CUsH https://t.co/9QeOPMAUu8 — PolitiTweet.org

@InlandCaGuy The old version of this was "Gore should have won those Florida Democrats who voted for Bush instead of blaming Nader." Well, sure, but some of these were right-wing Dems who just weren't voting for federal D candidates anymore. — PolitiTweet.org
