106. He also said not to trust those strategies to work in the future.
"The results speak for themselves. I’ll oversimplify: everybody matters. Every state, every region, every community matters,” Kaine said. However, he also warned Democrats to not simply trust that strategies that worked last year would also work in the future.

Dean had earlier defended the strategy in a valedictory speech before Kaine’s election as chairman.

“We cannot appear complacent,” Dean told party members. “We need to keep showing up, keep asking people for their vote, or we can lose their votes just as quickly as we gained them.”

Why wouldn't they work in the future?

Frankly, I don't care what strategy they use. I just know things will be easier for us now as far as expending energy and money. Life will be simpler.

We just won back congress and the white house, but now it won't work?

Let the corporations fund them.
