Obviously, everyone of these candidates have done things in their lifetime that they should be less than proud of, but do you really think they should have the nerve to say things about each other? Your thoughts.

If it is the truth, then yes. If it is lies, no. The public has the right to know the truth.

Do they really think it is good to assassinate the other's character when the public knows?

If you are revealing a truth, a fact, that may open the someone's eyes and change a vote, then I support it.

Would you change your vote based on something someone did in their past? Lots of people do things in their past they are not proud of but turn themselves around and do great things.

Actually, in the case of Obama, it's not even what HE did, but simply what someone he knows did.
As if Obama bears any responsibility for someone elses' action.

Isn't the Republican Party supposed to be the party of INDIVIDUAL responsibility?

Oh yeah, that only applies when it's convenient.
I get it.

LOL

If it had to do with terrorism, yes! I remember 9/11. I lived 12 miles away from the twin towers. How easily people forget.

I am not talking about that. I am talking about the accusations about Obama having a gay affair and doing drugs and McCain and his affair, etc.

These questions you are posing are somewhat suspicious.

On another note: McCain started the character assassination. Obama has no choice but to respond in kind.

Why are they somewhat suspicious? I am for Obama. If you have read any of my posts you would see that I have said that Obama has been the better man and has been more than patient with the statements that McCain and his sidekick are throwing out there. I am only trying to prove the point that we all have done things in our past that we aren't proud of but we can still turn out to be good people and do good things.
