we dont appreciate the sacrificial lambs nearly enough. i’ve worked a couple campaigns where we lost, and we knew we wd. the party hung us out to dry.
but that’s how u build a party. sometimes it takes a few cycles. but if we put up nobody, we have nobody to tell our side of the story. we let them define us.

and like they say- u lose 100% of the seats u dont bother to contest.
this is what the 50 state strategy was all about.
howard dean was right about everything.
