Veteran Dem Strategist Patti Solis Doyle: ‘Right Now We’re Leaderless, We’re Messageless, We’re Agendaless’

‘So I’m concerned to say the least’

EXCERPT:

SOLIS DOYLE: "So, first, let me say that I have never been happier not to be actually in it, in the middle of politics, than I am right now, because it sounds really depressing, what's going on at the party. I mean, overall, when you lose, the party that loses gets, as you know, as I know personally, attacked and criticized, and they're the stupidest people that ever walked the planet and 'How could you have missed that?' That's what's happening with the Democrats right now, they’re getting attacked from all sides. The other problem that they have is that there’s no real leader. You know, if your party holds the White House, leader of the party is president. If your party doesn’t hold the White House, the leader of the party is the last, you know, president of that party. So right now for us, that’s Joe Biden, but he has completely — you know, he’s off the radar completely. And as you opened with, Mark, the DNC chair really isn’t the leader of the party. I mean, they’re supposed to keep operations going, they're supposed to raise money, they're supposed to make sure there’s stuff going on in the states, but they're not really the leader of the party. So right now we're leaderless, we're messageless, we're agendaless, we don’t have any alternative ideas to the president and the Republicans right now. So, you know, I’m concerned, to say the least."
