This is the most disgusting election campaign cycle EVER. The left has dropped all masks and breaks.

Well, they’ve been doing odious stuff going back 200 years. But this also demonstrates why so many of our best citizens that might consider public service don’t bother anymore, especially when they do a media anal probe not just of you, but a gynecological probe of your teenage daughters.

Not really, we're just getting back to the way they were doing it in the 19th century.

You should read this ... some interesting stuff about the mudslinging of the 1800's.

19th Century Political Campaigns

1828

Opponents of Andrew Jackson, for example, accused him of murder, while Old Hickory's men whispered that his rival John Quincy Adams had been, while U.S. minister to Russia, a pimp for the tsar.

1876

Democrats focused on the scandals of the outgoing Grant administration, painting all Republicans as crooks and calling Grant "the Mephistopheles [devil] of American politics."

You are not kidding! Like having an election in a pig farm.
