14. I really, really want Democrats to avoid talking about how honorable he was

He was an absolute prick toward Pres Biden and his son when Biden was president -- after decades of fostering a friendship with him and talking about what a wonderful person and public servant he was.

So issue statements, if you need to, about his years of service and I guess what a patriot he was or whatever pablum you think is appropriate, but FFS spare me the discourse about how honorable and reasonable he was. Leave that bullshit for Meghan McCain.
