The DCCC strategy in a nutshell. And when the aforedescribed Dem candidates aren’t available, there’s always national security operatives (of the 102 primary elections to choose Dem nominees, 44 involve candidates with a military intelligence or State Dept. background). How can it fail?
This is actually a very viable strategy. If you were an attractive young person with political ambitions, would you consider it more advantageous to align yourself with the Democrats or with the Republicans, even assuming that your only actual ambition was to advance your personal agenda? And, more young people, especially those who are politically astute, are actually more inclined toward the ideals of the Democratic party than those of the Republicans, by about two to one.

Hey, Chex! 40 odd years ago, one of them at least, was 14. That’s eighth grade. You think that’s OK? How about if it was YOUR daughter?

Dems are voting in large enough numbers to overcome Republican gerrymandering.

Yes, more Democrats to vote for Republican legislation. Just what this country didn’t need. Policy before party!

As long as they “promise” not to cut Social Security and Medicare.
