Our pundit class is unwilling to go there.

I get it, acknowledging that many Americans will not vote for a woman is painful, but we have to accept that or we'll lose again.

Once again my son got more candy on two blocks in Brooklyn than I would get in an entire night of trick or treating in the suburb where I grew up – and he did it all while my wife and I went out for drinks with friends around the corner. Dense, walkable neighborhoods for the win!

All we want is Link and private accounts

I'll keep beating this drum: Our problem is running a woman when most of rural America (and plenty of urban) will never, never, never vote for one - much less one of color.

Run the straight white male.

Rural Ohio counties went big for Trump who (along with his big money supporters) is against every recommendation in the report.

Frustrates the hell out of me.

Until we figure out a way to poll for racism and sexism - the data means little. Every question asked is filtered through those two things.

Thank you for this - many great ideas.

But c'mon people, our big mistake was running a woman. Any honest assessment of rural voters in swing states (and the rest) proves that.

Run a straight white male. Win the presidency.

Nice. Thanks!

Not your average cat. 😂🤣👇

Good reporting. Keep telling it straight.

Thank you for saying it out loud. Time to move on.

I disagree. My evidence is 40 years of living in rural areas that has me very familiar with the sexism that drives daily life. Farm/rural life is male based - the son gets the farm. Add racism to the mix and Harris was doomed.

Mayor, rep, senator - less of an issue. President - no way.

My take.

Run a straight white male. Would have worked in 24 and will be required to win in 28,32,36,40....

Keep it up NPR. Tell it straight.

I'm glad you have such great memories. Clearly a life well lived.

We can whine till 2030 or push her to do better. Your choice.

Could be but I'll take anything.

I am typically tough on Klobuchar but this is well done.

Call the Republicans out by name. Let her constituents and the rest of red America know who's screwing them.

Keep it up.

Yes, they are happy. He's feeding their bigotry. The financial whining is just playing their bail-out card.

Acceptable from Oct 27-31. Alarming the rest of the year.

When we get control back we need to investigate and prosecute wage theft. Farm by farm by farm.

Expecting farm workers to subsidize farm businesses (and us greedy ass consumers) is unethical and immoral.

Best hot dog out there!

She really eats up this bipartisan stuff. Has she looked at the Whitehouse lately?

Sure, we're supposed to help you out while you reliably vote for people who screw the rest of us over.

You'll get no sympathy from me but I do feel bad for the 19% of your county that voted for Harris.
