Apparently, he just announced he's running. I didn't click on the link. I'm so bored by him I could almost scratch my own eyes out.

I know the Democrats exceeded expectations but they lost the House and barely held the Senate. I'm not sure I would call that winning.

How not? As long as there's real unity on what "middle" means.

"The middle" to me is very broad. It's something between getting 100 percent of what you want and getting zero percent...

"real unity" to me in reference to somehow patching together a party in the middle, means a group of non-extreme centrists whose primary goal is "somehow getting along".

Not dedicated first and foremost to some personal sine qua non (like abortion). People willing and able to listen and "reason together".
