Is that campaign operatives in both parties tend to be younger, more urban, and more liberal than the party.

For Republicans it means operatives tend to moderate the candidate's instincts at least culturally.

For dems it means they get people telling them Defund/Open borders are popular and consensus with the base.

The flip side is there's way less talent on the Republican side because the left has more intelligencia folks to choose from and their people tend to be more talented when you ignore ideology.
