Presidential race 2016

[HairOfTheDog]

Do y'all think family members are fair game when candidates are trashin' the opposition? I ask because I just read that Donald is threatening to "spill the beans" on Ted Cruz' wife. He's pissed because a super pac put out a commercial starring his wife in a very provocative pose. I fully expect him to do the same in regards to Bill & Hillary.

I think since Hillary uses Bill's record often in her speeches and campaigning that he's fair play. She's going to have a hard time beating up Trump about his misogynist remarks, of which there are many, because of Bill's past behavior and the allegations against him. I hope she avoids that trap and just focuses on how she's going to advance women's issues.

The anti-Trump PAC's swipe at Trump's wife is different. I think it's low and was probably an attempt to sway evangelicals away from Trump.



I don't know if that ad succeeded in turning off any religious would-be Trump voters, but think it probably turned on some voters and Trump can make it work to his benefit.

If Trump really has any beans to spill about Cruz's wife in retaliation, I'd be surprised. We already know the woman married Ted Cruz anyway.
