CNN's pundits – not Dana Basch and Abby Phillip but that unholy quartet of Van Jones and Rick Santorum and Axelrod and whassaname — are already doing that "It will be good if GA's two Senate seats go to the GOP bc then Biden will have to govern from the sensible middle" thing.
the "sensible middle' is one of the most inane, nonsensical constructions in mainstream US political discourse.
besides the fact that it presumes that Biden is going to govern from the left — tuh — it also assumes that the two parties are symmetrical ideological opposites.

Now Kasich is doing it: "Now is the time for Democrats to listen to the other side...we need to listen to what those Republicans want."
he's poo-pooing the Green New Deal (which is *broadly popular*) and talking about more tax cuts for the middle class and rejecting socialism.
Now Van Jones is talking about "opportunity zones"!
this is moderate?
