This.
It's really depressing that the Republicans set the bar so low.
But the Democrats seem to sink to 'barely higher' far too often.
For instance, Democrats constantly argue that eschewing SuperPACs would be unilateral disarmament. Bernie proves that to be bullpoop, and voters reward his integrity, but those new facts change nothing.
Think of the political capital that Clinton could get from vowing to refuse SuperPACs in 2020.
Back on this topic, the GOP debases the conversation by arguing "shame on you on behalf of the Benghazi victims" and the Democrats follow them into the mud with their own, more moderate, smear from a fallen soldiers family.
It's an election about trustworthiness; arguing "we're better than them, at least" is such weak tea.
