Disagree, it was more than that..people just didnt care to listen and it didnt break through in large part for the reasons I noted above. But thats how it always gets presented, Dems only speak about institutions. I never forget right after Hillary lost someone commented dont care she lost because she said nothing about mass incarceration. Took me two seconds to find a speech where she talked about that very issue and on her website a proposed (and very progressive) policy. The message doesnt break through and people dont care to look or listen.
