I don’t buy this. I think RNC and DNC are not just trying to win votes; the individuals within those orgs are mainly trying to preserve and increase their own power, which entails winning votes, but it also entails a bunch of internal coalition stuff.
Grabbing an excelent non-politician, and grooming him or her for power, and then attempting to put him in a position of power, without “climbing the ranks”, isn’t obviously in the interest of any of the party officials of either party.
