I agree that they attempted to court both those votes, but not that they actually moved one way or the other in terms of the party itself.
They were just scattered and disingenuine about enough issues that enough people didn't buy in. I don't think a half-hearted plea to progressives cost them moderate/Republican votes as much as I think it cost them progressive votes.
