9. Abandoning the 50 state strategy was huge

Thu Oct 3, 2013, 10:42 AM

Oct 2013

Of course it had nothing to do with the party third way leadership marginalizing progressive voices after 2008. It had nothing to do with the party abandoning the 50-State strategy which brought us a majority in the house. It had nothing to do with a chief of staff calling the left "retards", right?
