But we can't have the deplorable Russia-loving Orange Man winning true-blue CA though, can we?

"Win," by whatever means necessary. From ch. 2 of Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals," "(The man of action) asks of ends only whether they are achievable and worth the cost; of means, only whether they will work. To say that corrupt means corrupt the ends is to believe in the immaculate conception of ends and principles... Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life."
