The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee said Saturday that it will continue to back Democrat Cal Cunningham for a critical Senate seat in the North Carolina race after the candidate admitted to exchanging sexually-suggestive texts with a strategist.
Stupid and Stupid. With that said, perhaps Democrats are finally learning not to be puritans and support flawed but viable candidates…Then there is this: WHY do adults who do f-n stupid things like this…always feel the need to SHARE…knowing it’s gonna make the news…Are horny people really this stupid…all.the.time?
However:
No payoffs to cover it up.
No illegal campaign contributions to make the payoff.
No illegal campaign contributions to make a payoff improperly laundered as deductible business expenses.
No thugs sent to threaten the woman involved.
Sure, it is a low bar, but it is a bar for smacking the forehead of every Trumpp-licker who wants to play moral scold.
Really? Really? What the fuck is wrong with people in the public eye who behave like nothing can touch them? I would expect behavior like this from someone like Larry “Wide Stance” Craig. But Cunningham? He is young enough and smart enough to know that nothing is anonymous anymore. I would not encourage him to drop out of the race because that would be a gift to the profoundly stupid and malicious Tillis. I would encourage Cunningham to get a damn clue and grow the fuck up.
We’re expecting Republicans or Republican leading voters in NC who are turned off by Trump’s bullshit to vote Dem because we are offering something different.
I don’t consider ceding the high ground to be a little thing or a misdemeanor. Not when you’re trying to win over moderates in NC.
