13. Steve Schmidt brought moral rot to the Republican party in the era of Rove/Cheney/Bush

It is bizarre that people on our side are holding him up as some sort of moral voice of clarity.

He is the man who pushed for Alito and Roberts on the Supreme Court.

He is part of the Rove/Cheney/Bush horror show.
