The dire ramifications for an  Electoral College race are plain to see. But another growing menace  faces veteran Dem elected officials. With the party isolating its appeal  to urban and coastal blue fortresses, these pols are at the mercy of a  progressive base of voters that grows ever more extreme and unsatisfied  as the confines of the party\u2019s bubble become more tightly constricted.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>As the Diversity Turns<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Rep. Eliot Engel (D-NY) is the latest example of a powerful  congressional Democrat incumbent facing the very real threat of being  hoisted on his own petard. The 16-term veteran, who chairs the House  Foreign Affairs Committee, represents a heavily urbanized district in  the Bronx.
