And the Democrats gave the story to the liberal media just one month before the elections.
And you know what? If they didn't, they would have had their license to contest elections suspended. The Dems used this stupid story for pure partisan political benefit, but we should have (1) seen this coming and (2) had an attack of our own in the wings.
You don't win elections by claiming your opponent outsmarted you. That's what the Dems did here.
