My INsnyde Take...Leftist Snipers: Shooting Democrats Before Republicans Even Load Their Guns

Oh good — nothing says “helping the ticket” like some Democrats spending their energy whispering GOP talking points. Watching some self-styled "leftists" heap dirt on Beau for not being a Hoosier is peak political self-sabotage — especially when the Republicans themselves have quietly moved on because their own candidate wasn’t exactly a hometown poster child. The more this kerfuffle plays out, the clearer it becomes that the only people this helps are the people who enjoy watching Democrats hand victories to Republicans on a silver platter. As one reader put it after watching my interview with Beau Bayh's dad: “The more people bash Beau, the more I support him.” If that doesn’t sting, nothing will.



So-called “leftists” of the Democrat Party like to shoot some Democratic candidates in the foot before the Republicans even get their guns loaded. The SnydeReport picks a side — the Democratic side — and we’re not going to stand for internecine petty attacks that smell like opportunism dressed up as principle. If you want to beat Tippy Toe Diego, bring policy, competence and a better campaign — not recycled smear tactics and juvenile memes. Stop helping the other side look competent by acting like you’re angling for a press release from the opposition.
