Pretty much how politics work.  Looking at the ads of course they cannot lie and she did make those statements.  Also with any ads, context will always be left out but she did give her opponents ammunition.  So the party wants a more centrist then a progressive.  Not sure why this would be incredible, there are multiple Dems going for that seat and the party is aligned with someone who is not as far left.  If she truly has the grit then she should be able to overcome these basic tactics.  At the end of the day, if Ohio is really ready for someone as progressive as her, then such tactics will mean nothing.  Since I live in Ohio, she needs to show me that she knows how to work with both parties.  If she is the all or nothing Progressive then she probably will not get my vote.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia covered this tactic :D

Lol, right on point.  Context is king especially in smear campaigns.  Its not what you say its usually what you do not say that form the narrative.  Interesting enough, I personally could care less what she thinks about Biden.  I am more concerned about how she thinks and what she can bring.  My main concern is with any Progressive.  Find out what you can accomplish and move to make it happen.  To much pie in the sky policy that has no chance of getting through your own party let alone the GOP just not going to cut it.  Get something done even if its not everything you want then build on that.
