This reminds me of how the DP editorial board will wax poetic about the importance of keeping the ACA, mitigating climate change, protecting national lands, and other issues usually supported by Democratic candidates; then, every few years, they invariably endorse people like Mike Coffman and Corey Gardner, who stand on the wrong side of all of those issues. 

It's as if they have to put on their cognitive dissonance hat every time an election rolls around.
