I don't really mind "dirty campaigning". I would certainly like a debate on the issues and a frank discussion about where this country is and where it is going, but the vast majority of the American electorate doesn't really care about this. Reality and history say that mudslinging works, we eat it up and slop it down like pigs. It is just human nature, and if Kerry can't defend himself from being called a Communist ( a clearly false and sophomoric statement) then he has no business running for president. The same can be said for calling Bush a Nazi.
I would also like to give kudos to pan6467 for the "Rant" . You are right on the money. Let's take a look their pasts, consider them and then move on to what they are doing today. (If I want to paint Bush as a silver-spoon, combat evaiding , coke-snorting drunk I guess I could but he clearly is not that today, so why?)
