Are you thinking about running for office?
How much money will you be running against?
Will they have the funds to dig up the dirt on you, that you didn't want anyone to know?

Will getting rid of the evidence get you caught, in the dirt that otherwise would have never come out.

To run for national office today, you better be squeaky clean.
There is so much money flowing on both sides of the isle, any dirt on you from the age of 1 breath, will surface.

Of those in the running on both sides, who has the most dirt to dig?

Hilary has a mountain to dig through.
Warren has her own problem and I'm a Cherokee affirmative action.
Biden... Oh My. What a field day digging dirt.
John Kerry? Well his already came out, so the tailings will be sifted through for nuggets.
Jeb? They are there, the sheet has been pull over the ground so no one can dig.
Rand? I say he smoked pot in high school and college... That is real dirt in todays world..
Ted? His wife is some banking insider?

What else?
Huckabee? I have not seen dirt slung on him. But I bet they are digging.
Carson? Look at what they are creating for him, in the media.

So right. Perhaps that is why we get the awful candidates every time.

If the opposing Super Pacs can't find enough dirt on the candidate, their family and contacts, they make it up and get it planted.

One good sensational headline is worth a thousands facts to the contrary.

I cannot imagine putting one's family through the ringer of politics.

This has pretty much been true for the last 30 years. They even attacked Dukakis' wife for something when he was a candidate. The good news is that it used to be a death knell for candidates to have smoked pot ever. At least now, that is fairly meaningless and accepted.

So what happened with numb nuts in the Whitehouse then? He was raised by domestic terrorists who instilled him with a hatred for America. He was a part time instructor, a mediocre lawyer and was in the senate for a couple of years during which time he rarely made it to votes yet look what happened.

Take Hillary, she has 8-10 times more expierience, albeit corrupt, and she's getting eaten alive by the very press that gave numb nuts a pass.
