back once again to my hobbyhorse of "they torched OFA and ACORN, on purpose". "we don't need groups that will do voter outreach and registration and all the nitty gritty stuff, or listen to those groups concerns, demographics as destiny, we don't gotta do shit anymore, wooooooo"

haven't forgotten either how badly the party wanted to abandon the 50 state strategy either, how eager they were to kick howard dean out and replace him with tim kaine, then get smoked in 2010, but go "actually we don't need to change leadership at all" after that
