Donors have been leaving the FL Democratic Party. To be a viable party, the party needs funds. In order to get funds, the party needs to become or appear viable.

I think the Party needs outside help, outside resources and more funding. It seems that very few people (even here on DU) believe that investing in Florida is a good idea. If that's the case, then how can we ever hope to win in Florida?

I feel the same way about a host of other states, because nationwide, I think the Party needs to invest in areas that we usually avoid or don't do well in. Otherwise, we'll forever be capped at 50 or 51 senate seats.
