WASHINGTON -- American Bridge 21st Century president Rodell Mollineau today released the following statement regarding the results of the 2012 elections:

"Last night was a vindication of those who believe that better ideas, better candidates, and better campaigns still matter in electoral politics. American Bridge would like to congratulate President Obama  the Democratic Senate majority and Democratic House victors, who will work together to move our country forward. American Bridge entered the 2012 election cycle with the belief that a strategic operation focused on opposition research, candidate tracking, and earned media communications could play a part in helping Democrats compete with the Karl Roves and Koch brothers in the outside spending race. Working alongside Priorities USA, Majority PAC, House Majority PAC, labor and all of our allies in the progressive community, we may not have matched our conservative counterparts dollar-for-dollar, but we managed to compete where it counted: the ballot box. This election shows that even in the post-Citizens United landscape, progressive messaging and superior Democratic organizations are capable or triumphing over Tea Party ideology and conservative money."
