I get what you’re saying but I’ve had quite enough of the high road. You realize as much as i that it doesn’t work. Not everything has to be a goldarn calculation. I can destroy their argument and then their ego. With any tool i care to use. If somehow a schoolyard rumor is the fuckin trick to crack their will to ruin my democracy ill use it, watch their lil faces twist, and ill sleep super sound at night.
So while I am amused by the whole gag, I would say it’s less about the “high” road and more about the fact that the “low” road may not work. Fox News was low-roading all over Obama, making up crap and trying to make a deal out of nothing. It never really impacted Obama’s popularity, as anyone vaguely on the fence saw it and said “ok, this is stupid, if that’s all Fox News can come up with, then I guess there’s nothing to find”.
