Even if it is true they "all do it", with paid actors instead of real supporters in the ads, doesn't make it right. It's part of the phony BS almost everybody would like campaigns to do without.
How is Cruz's campaign any different from "business as usual" and "do what it takes to win" campaigns of the past?

UPDATE: In an interview with BuzzFeed, Lindsay said that she did not do hardcore porn and had appeared in other non-erotic films too. Lindsay said she is a Christian conservative who is deciding between Cruz and Donald Trump for president.I've never understood this advice to scuttle away like a cockroach when the lights turn on when this happens.
Find out if she really is a Christian Conservative now and get in front of it WITH her.
Evangelicals eat up a story like that with a serving spoon.

True.
The Cruz Campaign probably just figured she was an actress in commercials, didn’t consider that she might have been in movies so didn’t bother to vet her name through IMDB. Amateur mistake, but we’re seeing a lot of those this cycle.
I’d still like to know (for curiousities sake) who figured out who she was and dropped the dime on her to the press. Especially since someone mentioned on another thread that she hadn’t done a Skinemax movie since 2008.

You are ridiculous. Paid actors in political ads are standard, just as paid actors for Coca-Cola, McDonalds, and Chevrolet are standard.
Your claims that “almost everybody would like campaigns to do without” paid actors in ads is ludicrous. Only a very small group of voters would think that paid actors in political ads “doesn’t make it right”.
You have lost all reason.

Just watched the ad. Priceless! I had seen another one last night, or a part of it, and thought it was the one being spoken of. But this one is great!

Do you work for free?
If they were not supporters would they do ads for someone they didn't like, even for money?

Yup. Uber-Lib actor Martin Sheen has a brother who sounds just like him. George W. Bush hired the brother to voice some TV spots for him in 2000. To casual TV viewers it appeared that Martin Sheen was endorsing George Bush. Libs went nuts and the top of Sheen's head just about blew-off.
