It's Tuesday morning quarterback now, but she should have run on a platform of:
1. Kill Inflation by balancing the federal budget and reducing the deficit
2. Tax cuts for small businesses under $10m in turnover and individuals under $400k.
3. Immigration: we're closing the our borders and moving to skills based Immigration, not corporate led. Complete overhaul.

Dems needed to hammer the immigration (i.e border) issue better. They had a border bill, the Republicans stymied it so they could use the border as an issue in the election.
They didnt push that (maybe fearing the border wasnt an issue their supporters wanted to talk about?) to their detriment.
I know a lot of people were commenting that the Dems were playing the abortion debate too hard. I figured there was some stats to back up how well that would play (like state votes on these). For whatever reason that didn't work like they thought it would
