I’m a very progressive person who genuinely cares about winning elections, but I didn’t word myself correctly. I’ll be more thoughtful! I really promise.”
“While I have great respect and admiration for Congressman Crockett, I regret that my words suggested otherwise. I just want us to win, and I will find better ways to help.”
