Statistics tell a story: Matthew Yglesias is the most effective political entrepreneur on the Center Left. Join our team at The Welcome Party and WelcomePAC next Wednesday, October 18 at noon ET for a conversation with him via Zoom (previously scheduled for today, but postponed due to Speaker vote). My co-founder Liam Kerr and I are cohosting! 🥳 There's plenty to learn from Matt Yglesias, but our first Centrist School Office Hours conversation will focus on three topics for ~30 minutes before opening up to questions: 1. Polarization is a Choice 2. Popularism needs Organizing, Not Debating 3. Slow Boring as center-left community (and Matt as entrepreneur). I hope to see you there!

Why no centrist happy hours in Massachusetts in 2018? And why does it matter? The Center Left's siloed approaches to #policy can be isolating and prevent sharing effective tactics, building cross-issue coalitions, and gaining media visibility. #moderatedemocrats #democrats #voters https://lnkd.in/gi7t9Hz2

Reality check: winning a sustainable majority is only possible via big-tent initiatives. [Via John Avlon for CNN] #independentvoters #moderatevoters #swingvoters https://lnkd.in/gR6pjWr5
