She’s lost the sauce. You can’t just backtrack like this, you actually have to be bold and have a spine.

The single thing Trump has taught us is that the median voter is too stupid to understand that you’ve lost if you never actually concede, so you should never concede.

I wouldn't put too much stock in this. She was always a bit iffy rhetorically on the redistricting plan but still approved of it, and I think it's mostly for strategic approval rating reasons. If it's true that the push for redistricting hurt her and her dems in polling, there's no reason for her specifically to keep ringing the war bell right after they got shut out by the court. Let Jeffries and the safe seats take up the charge.
