The point is not whether the DNC will put forward a genuine change candidate (they probably won't) but whether voters will stop believing that a change candidate cannot win.

Matthew Yglesias Shows That Republican-Lite Democrats Are Not More Likely To Win
For what it's worth, given the DNC's antics in the last primaries, I think a lot of Sanders supporters will be under the impression that change candidates can not win because they are not allowed to. The republican-lites may or may not believe a genuine change candidate can win but they wouldn't want it because they are republican-lite. All in all, whatever the voters believe about the possibility of a change candidate winning, the DNC have demonstrated clearly that they are not interested and that is what counts at the end of the day.
Interesting article, raising some important issues. Thank you.
