Kaine himself wasn’t on the ballot that year. But as the chairman of the national party, he was at the helm as Democrats were decimated up and down the ballot :
Republicans netted six governorships, six Senate seats, 63 House seats and control of the chamber. They also gained 20 state legislative chambers, including Southern statehouses that hadn’t gone Republican in generations.
Meanwhile, Kaine skirted blame for all of it, despite being the Democratic National Committee chair in the worst Democratic blowout in a generation. On the contrary, people inside and outside the DNC building argue that Kaine might actually deserve some credit for the election not going worse, and that the real story of Kaine’s tenure was revealed in 2012, when President Barack Obama held the White House and Democrats clawed back some of their losses.
