You don’t loose an election by the margin Musgrave did because of attack ads. Musgrave lost because she practiced slash and burn politics until her tactics finally blew back on her. Her actions, or lack thereof, until her Georgia robo calls, show her true character. McCain showed class in defeat. Musgrave anything but class.

DA Newsome also seemed to think he had better things to do than enforce Colorado Constitution provisions concerning campaign finance. His attitude in deciding which laws (or which parts of the Constitution) he will enforce, and deciding which laws apply to his personal behavior, is why he lost his office.
