Don't get too comfortable with Democratic majorities

Because Barack Obama's hand-picked DNC chair can't cope with the success of the 50-state strategy....so he's decided to scale it back:
He says the 50-state strategy was "really important." Good. He says "Its success speaks for itself." Yes.

But in both answers he says they won't being doing exactly what they did during the last 4 years. Kaine: "You never should just do what you did yesterday" and "We may do it in different ways." More specifically, Virginia is not, say, Idaho and therefore: "I won't say it should apply equally in every state." But we will continue it in "new and exciting ways."

So, bottom line: it was really important and successful and we'll be doing something that we'll call a 50-state strategy but it won't look like it did before. Because "you never should just do what you did yesterday" even if what you did yesterday worked really well.


Yes, let's go back to the days of "Can't win, don't try" -- and putting all the money into "sure thing" states, hoping that enough people in the other states will vote for you so you barely squeak into the presidency after the Republicans have spent the last eight years laying the groundwork for Republican election theft in any year other than one which has the most loathed man in America leaving office.

In case you needed further proof that Democrats just can't stand winning.
