New with @SherylNYT: House Dems are discarding the lessons of successful midterms past (think “Contract With America,” and “Six for ’06.”) and pressing only a bare-bones national agenda as they head into the closing stretch.

@SherylNYT The bet is that w/anti-Washington sentiment simmering; a deep divide between mods and lefties; and Nancy Pelosi's brand toxic in large sections of the country, a unified campaign framework emanating from Capitol Hill would do more harm than good.
@SherylNYT But it is a risky strategy, essentially putting off answering one of the most immediate questions facing the Democratic Party after its losses in 2016: What does it stand for?
