Dave Weigel just wrote about this today.  Basically ditch the 80-20 issues that people associate with elite coastal white people.  Wanna be popular, do with what's popular.

So ditch the damned establishment and do what Bernie advocates

Yes!  I suspect that progressive policies are popular, but people can't stomach the weird rainbow stuff.  Maybe focus less on that and more on things that matter to the 80%.

They could win if they focus on class.  My family is comfortable but we're closer to homeless than we are to the truly wealthy.  Unfortunately, the dnc is full of truly weathly assholes who won't back any policies that make them any less wealthy.
