It is almost worth losing a Democratic seat to have George Santos as a Republican poster child [View all]

Ok, it's actually not a close call, it would be much better to have another Democratic seat, but I love how the Santos story seems to have the half life of plutonium. Santos is so emblematic of the current sick version of the Republican Party that he defines them in neon lights, and the fact that they won't disown him means they continually wear him around their necks like a dead albatross. Santos may have gotten more coverage last night, all of it negative, than Sanders did for her Republican reply to the SOTU.
