I disagree that it always hurts for there to be opposition to these campaign ads. What happens, oftentimes, is the ads are shown on the cable news shows over and over so everyone can see the "controversy". It was the same as when the Dems complained about Bush landing on the carrier. He kept being shown repeatedly making that landing, looking presidential and in charge. I think when the complaints are really preposterous and silly, most people see through them and the net effect is a lot of free advertising for the president.

Here is the real definition of defining candidates... and when to do so.
