12. Omar does not have very good political instincts.

It was not illegal for her to hire her husband's company, though that sort of thing probably should be - but obviously she didn't see that it looks stinky and shouldn't have been done. She needs to get smarter about how politics works or get better advisers. Still, those endorsements are worth something. I almost voted for the other guy (and might have gone with John Mason, too), except for the fact that party support is valuable, and the PAC ads opposing her were really offensive. I did not learn enough about Antone himself to overcome the ickiness of the ads and Pelosi's support for Omar.
