Congratulation To Steve Schmidt...

...for once again making himself the story.

Because that Lincoln Project stank is never gonna wash off.  Even if Schmidt uses Bon Ami.

And because that stank is forever, every time Schmidt decides to wade into a campaign and bear hug a candidate, these are going to be the headlines that Republicans will use their huge megaphone to blast into the contest.  From Fox News:

Democrat Tim Ryan turns to co-founder of disgraced Lincoln Project for help on campaign trail

Steve Schmidt co-founded the Lincoln Project, an anti-Donald Trump PAC that saw its reputation collapse in a wave of humiliating scandals

This is the statement from the Vance campaign, which is delighted that Schmidt has given them something else to talk about besides their candidate's hypocrisy and cosplay fascism:

"We're not shocked a fraud like Tim Ryan has hitched himself to a Lincoln Project grifter like Steve Schmidt.  Schmidt lost every single Senate race he got involved in during the 2020 election cycle and we look forward to continuing that losing streak for him." 

"That Ryan is openly campaigning with this grifter tells you just how desperate his campaign has become."

Every Democrat is pulling for Tim Ryan to win this very tight race,

And distractions like Schmidt are the very last thing that campaign needs.
