Democrats in Decline

'LEADERLESS. MESSAGELESS. AGENDALESS': Veteran Dem Strategist Paints Grim Picture of Democratic Party [WATCH]

Even Dems don’t like their party…

Veteran Democratic strategist Patti Solis Doyle admitted Friday that her party is in crisis—lacking leadership, a clear message, and a unifying agenda.

Solis Doyle made the comments on the Next Up with Mark Halperin podcast.

“I have never been happier not to be actually in it — in the middle of politics — than I am right now, because it sounds really depressing, what’s going on at the party,” Solis Doyle said. “I mean, overall, when you lose, the party that loses gets, as you know, as I know personally, attacked and criticized. And ‘you’re the stupidest people who have ever walked the planet,’ and ‘how could you have missed that?’ And that’s what’s happening with the Democrats right now. They’re getting attacked from all sides.”

“The other problem that they have is that there’s no real leader. If your party holds the White House, the leader of the party is the president. If your party doesn’t hold the White House, the leader of the party is the last president of that party,” she continued. “So right now, for us, that’s Joe Biden. But he has completely — he’s off the radar completely … So right now, we’re leaderless, we’re messageless, we’re agendaless. We don’t have any alternative ideas to the president’s and the Republicans’ right now. So I’m concerned to say the least.”

Watch the clip below:

More than 60% of Democrats say their party needs new leaders, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Thursday — double the share of Republicans who feel the same.

And the mood isn’t bright. Just one in three Democrats told a May AP-NORC poll they feel even “somewhat optimistic” about their party’s future.

A May Puck/Echelon poll also found that likely voters largely viewed the Democratic Party as “liberal, weak, corrupt.” Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters most commonly perceived the party as “weak.”
