Just generally, insurgents are doing well.
I mean, I think we're seeing like a much higher than normal level of incumbents losing.
And the sort of people who don't like this are the sort of establishment wing of the party.
And they are, like, freaking out.
And I think the freaking out itself... I mean, we'll maybe come back to, like, what is actually happening, what the voters are saying, because I think that's the really significant part.
But I think that there is a very amusing and noteworthy thing, which is...
that now people who are senior, ran the DNC, were advisors to presidents, presidential candidates, are now talking like the Green Party.
They're saying, we need a split.
We need a schism.
This is James Carvel, who's admittedly not been involved with
you know, actual politics, but was, like, you know, very close to the Clintons in the 1990s and also to the Hillary Clinton campaigns.
And he, like, actually said, like, you know, like, we need the DSA people to leave the party.
And I think it's very interesting because...
On previous occasions, when it was the left that was talking about leaving the party or creating third parties, Carville took a very different line.
He basically blamed Ralph Nader for the loss in 2000, talked about Cornel West as a threat to the Constitution.
uh, by running again.
And, um, so it's, it's a fascinating reversal.
Um, um, uh, I, I believe, uh, um, uh, Harrison, you know, had been head of the, uh, DNC.
Jamie Harrison.
Yeah.
