This sounds like a hopeful dream to get back to that place where nothing fundamentally changes. democrats need to push progressive policies & implement them effectively WITHIN deep blue places to generate tangible examples of the benefits of those policies. From those deep blue places, it will spread outwards to purple places & eventually to red places, because when people hear feel see & touch the benefits of progressivism (housing, food costs, upward mobility, local improvements) we win.
