The Democrats have decided that agendas are overrated.
Texas Democrat Colin Allred, following Hillary Clinton, says everyone should be able to buy into Medicare.
Maine Democrat Jared Golden, following Bernie Sanders, says, "We need to move towards a universal health care system, like Medicare-for-all."
The reason Democrats seek power in 2018 is to obstruct President Trump wholly and without exception, to tie down his administration using the subpoena powers of a dozen committees, and ultimately to lay the groundwork for his impeachment.
Suburbanites may be annoyed by the president's tweets, but they still believe that both sides should "Put aside their differences" and "Get something done." The Times notices that many of the Democrats running in Republican-held districts "Rarely mention the president by name." What these candidates understand is that explicitly making the 2018 election about Trump-which it certainly is-risks motivating Trump supporters to rally to his defense.
Generic candidates may win either the House or both the House and Senate for the Democrats.
Sublimating their real agenda while avoiding intra-party debates may be enough for the Democrats to win in 2018.
