                1. Zeldin is a nightmare. I think interpreting their support as a rebuke to Hochul is a mistake tho. Hochul ascended to Gov from a poisoned legacy, and isn't spending a ton on ads because of over confidence. And, unfortunately, you can add in sexism. politico.com/news/2022/10/22/hochul-zeldin-midterm-crime-inflation-00062843

                New York state has never *elected* a woman governor. Any analysis of her struggling at the polls that doesn't consider the factors in the state that have caused that history is missing a beat...

              Also, as is typical, she seems to be mostly doing attack ads and tbh they're not good. Like a lot of Dems she seems incapable of stating what her policies are going to be, nor has she articulated her plans, something *particularly important* for an unelected incumbent...

          Allowing the argument to move to "law and order" would be Hochul’s campaign giving their opponent a win. It's insane that they are just now pivoting to "specific actions she’s taken since assuming office last year." ...

        It's insane that it's 2022 and mainstream Democrats still don't understand that they need to run campaigns on what they've done and will do. They keep letting their campaigns be defined by their opponents. It's bad.

      To be clear, the Dems are spending a lot of money on the ads race, I meant in the top to say that her campaign isn't buying a wide *variaty* of ads.

    The biggest problem the Dems as a political organization consistently seem to have is themselves.
