The Editorial Board: Winning requires a new playbook — one grounded in evidence and persuasion. Swing less hard. Make contact. Bang on a trash can if you have to. Because politics, like baseball, isn’t about how powerful your swing looks. It’s about whether you score runs, writes the Editorial Board.
