What does David Yankovich actually do? The bio on his campaign website says something like "joined his mother in property management" but I can't find a lick of info on who he is and what he does for a living.

A google search turned up his defunct blog, the broken road, but the blog now redirects to his campaign page (which offers next to nothing on his bio and policy positions) and there's no way (internet archive, maybe?) to access his posts.

Bad dems love to pretend they've just sprouted into being, and are loath to have their past statements exposed.

I know the dems love themselves some blank slates, but I'm serious when I say there's absolutely nothing online about his past and present beyond the scant hagiography he presents.

I went down this wormhole after trying to find his campaign contributions but I can't recall seeing anywhere where he lived before moving to WI.

The huffpo description said he had been a political operative who worked with Democrats, and Republicans. What work did he do with Republicans exactly?

yah, I just found this on the palmer report:


So who is David Yankovich? If you’re not familiar with his presence on Twitter (link), he’s done some writing for Huffington Post, where his bio identifies him as a “former intelligence analyst, and political operative working with both Democrats, and Republicans.”

can someone explain to me how the Clinton campaign "went high" at all, while we're on the subject

it was all negative campaigning, that's what "going low" means. "Going high" doesn't mean "positioning yourself as in opposition to racism," it means "running a policy-focused campaign"
