Why is it the responsibility of Democrats to help Republicans lie to their primary voters? The ad against Gibbs isn't "couched as an attack ad," it *is* an attack ad. It's exactly how the Democrats will run against him if he wins the primary. And, it's all fact and defensible opinion. It's not the fault of Democrats that a plurality of Republican voters are insane, nor is it their responsibility to try and protect someone who will be voting for Kevin McCarthy to be Speaker next year. It's recognition that "having him in Congress" and "not spending the next two years living through a groundless Biden impeachment" are mutually exclusive results.

Personal note to Mark Elias: I have no degree in mathematics. I am not a scientist. But the last time I checked, +1/2 > 0.

I'll take the positive side of zero every time.
