Democrats are rebranding their national perception in response to voters upset over the economy and immigration.

Some of the most high-profile candidates in the running are Ken Martin , former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley , and long-shot candidate Marianne Williamson .

There is a sense among Democrats that more of the same leadership could continue the hemorrhaging of support.

A recent Suffolk University/USA Today poll showed that nearly half of respondents couldn't name a single person they considered to be the leader of the party.

Several Democratic governors could raise their national profiles as "resistance" leaders against Trump .

Some leaders are eschewing that sort of acrimonious battle with Trump after voters put him back in power.
