Nov 2018

Dems' "run everywhere" approach certainly was great strategy. It had GOP scrambling given there were so many races to divvy up their coffers to.

One thing to mention which i haven't seen all day: KUDOS to all our Dems leaders - POTUS Barack Obama, VP Biden, FLOTUS Michelle, Speaker Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, Tom Perez, BETO!!, Chuck Shumer, even Bernie Sanders, Avenatti and Michael Bloomberg ,
and a few others - who've done a darn good job travelling around the country and stumping for Blue candidates. They lifted our spirits, kept us focused, and got us over the final stretch to the win. Many thanks to them for giving us the leadership we needed so desperately. We are in a defining moment. We need to keep this momentum buildup to 2020.
