I’m not disagreeing, but right or not, I’m already tired of the cynicism and second-guessing a candidate’s intentions. I think we can see through the “dirty tricks”, but cynicism and manipulation are destroying our country. I haven’t seen one candidate not treated with cynicism even here on FR. Let’s get to whether or not the ad should be played, not whether or not he meant to manipulate. If he is manipulating us, then they ALL are, and that is probably the sadder truth no one wants to hang on their own choice of candidate. Not one person running for President is taken at face value anymore, are they? Cynicism, not hope, used to be a Dem trait, now apparently it is an American trait, and that’s the beginning of our end.
The best example on the democrat side seems to be Hillary's claim that she won't use Obama's Muslim religion against him.
