You write that off as though it's nothing. If you're a taxpayer in Massachusetts or Maryland, it is pretty important. Again, would I prefer to have some hardcore conservative running those states? Of course, but those states simply aren't going to elect my ideal candidate. However, if they're willing to elect people who will curb the Democrats' worst impulses, I will take that over people who will not. It's a net positive.
