The alt-weekly columnist writes this week about how Democrats shouldn’t let Republicans get away with their frequently risible talking points.

Example:

Republican: “I’m a Reagan Republican.”

Us: “Is that the Reagan who ran up the highest deficits of any eight-year president in history to that point (only to be outdone later by George W. Bush) or the Reagan who presided over the largest tax increase in American history?”

It concludes with this kiss off:

Republican: “Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Rodney Glassman is a know-nothing, self-serving spoiled rich kid who has used the family fortune to buy his way into politics.”

Us: “OK, we’ll give you that one.”
