Krystal Ball, really?
I guess the Porn career didn’t work out for her, so she had to take a more embarrassing Job.
The truth just kills some people, but I am afraid we haven’t seen anything yet.
Ball’s previous gig was as a Democrat candidate in Virginia’s 1st Congressional District, where she was beaten like a drum by GOP incumbent Rob Wittman back in 2010.
Late in the campaign, with Wittman up by 20 points, Ms. Ball tried the mother of all desperation tactics; someone from her organization released pictures of Ball, taken at a Christmas party a few years earlier. As I recall, in one of the shots, Ball has her mouth on a red dildo that another reveler is wearing on her nose. Ball claimed the Wittman campaign was behind the smear, but no one bought that story; with the incumbent coasting to victory in an R+6 (or better) district, he had no reason to use the photos.
The issue quickly died after Ball offered no proof the Wittman camp was behind the photo dump, and conservative media began looking into the very real possibility that Ms. Ball and her campaign were the real culprits.
Photo-gate also succeeded in raising Ms. Ball’s profile from political sacrificial lamb, to political victim, and put her on the fast track for MSNBC. That may be the media equivalent of a cabin upgrade on the Titanic, but Ball got what she wanted, even if it meant smearing herself.
Just more proof that Dims have no morals or ethics.
