But, we did win a more liberal congress. If Dems can flip the Georgia seats, we will have the most openly and unapologetically progressive congress in living memory. It's our messages which are driving the narrative. Centrists proved four years ago (and six years ago and ten years ago) that they aren't enough to win on their own. We are in the door and vital to any Democratic future, even if we are not directly operating the levers of control. Joe Biden would not be president-elect without us. The Senate runoff in Georgia would be an irrelvant footnote, if not for our participation. We are growing. The future is ours, and the Democratic Party will be our inheritance. We can take all the good parts of your platform and add it to ours, you will never be able to do the same.
Centrist Democrats won't disappear, but they will cease to be the leadership and take on a supporting role, operating the machinery instead of plotting its course. The right wing has run rampant for 50 years, and liberal leadership has only ever slowed the process. Centrist liberals are not leadership material. If they were, they would have understood, by now, that the republicans are going to call you marxists and socialists no matter how much you bend over backwards to appease them.

YOU CANNOT HIDE FOREVER
