I'm a little bit of a broken record on this, but the issue is that people mistake *partisanship* (D vs R, and the extent to which you cheer for your "team") for *ideological* positioning (left vs right). Crockett wasn't particularly left-wing, but she was very *partisan*.

This constant misunderstanding of Jasmine Crockett as somehow to Talarico’s left is mindblowing.

there's a world where in a ~decade Platner follows the the Fetterman path, will be kinda hilarious if it happens

Yes. Establishment Dems are extremely partisan (Orange Man Bad), but often centrist or non-ideological/vague in their policy convictions. Team sport. Progressives are aware of Trump's badness in a dismissively obvious way, and more concerned by the substance of the alternative.

Republicans have a built in advantage because the vast majority of right-wing leaders and voters are also partisan.

Platner isn't partisan because he has no loyalty to the Democratic Party. And that should give Democrats a lot of pause. If this guy is trying to flip 100K Trump voters due to his "non-partisanship", moderate Dems should probably support Susan Collins.
