34. Battleground states are important
We need the candidate that can build the party and move the voters. Obama has come from way behind since the beginning. He built a grassroots organizatin that will work all the way through til Nov. He spent a lot in each state to build name and party recognition. Sure sometimes he came up short where he had been 20 or more points behind, but he didn't burn any bridges. Does anyone really think either Dem candidate will lose in CA, NY, NJ, or MA?

The growth in the party, increased registration and turnout, has added to the number of battleground states. It's not just FL and OH that can swing the election this go round. We just need to get this thing done without a circular firing squad.
