But there are two ways to appeal in a bipartisan manner: one is to trend to the right in terms of morality and rhetoric, the other is to tend toward what’s popular in a bipartisan manner in terms of policy.
These are different things. Lots of people on both sides of the aisle (such as they are) favor elder home care being covered by Medicare. People on both sides of the aisle favour giving small businesses bigger tax breaks. Heck, people on both sides of the aisle favour taxing the rich more.
Playing to both sides of the aisle doesn’t need to be about embracing the likes of Liz and Dick Cheney. I feel like they conceded to much to get her support. Regardless of what Harris’ policies she pitched during the campaign, Cheney is FUBAR if Trump wins. And I question how many people long for the good old days of Neocon foreign policy.
