Another problem with taking the "low road" tactics is that the second a non-Leftist uses their tricks, the media will be all over it, broadcasting it non-stop and calling for heads. The media turns a blind-eye to the Left's crimes. A non-Leftist drops a candy wrapper on the sidewalk and they end up in jail. Again, part of this is because the non-Left refuses to use the same dirty tricks to get out of it. Media can easily be forced into keeping quiet. They ALL have skeletons in their closet. Nobody has the balls to do it.
