From the perspective of an outsider, I think Perez was the right choice for the Democrats to try and rebuild their party. I suspect Ellison could have easily been turned into a kind of American Corbyn. The job of a party chairman is to be a full time hack and solicit donations. I think Perez will be more effective at that role. One of the ways people are most likely to screw up is by over-correcting from previous mistakes. While DWS was totally in the tank for Hillary, it's not at all clear who the establishment would be hawking in 2020 and they're going to have a harder time pushing their folks through a primary to begin with.
