I don't like Obama. But I don't think
ad hominem attacks on people's mother are right, nor effective. You think someone is going to vote against Obama, because something you say about his mother? More likely they will think you are a jackass. Anyway,
ad hominem are for people who don't have ideas to back them up. Lastly, if tomorrow morning you woke up and found out everything that you thought about Obama's mother, was actually true about Romney's mother, would you switch your vote? C'mon it's time to be an adult, not a 7th grader.
(I disliked Clinton as much anybody else, but I always thought the juvenile insults about Hillary, Reno, etc. to be embarrassing.)
"Lastly, if tomorrow morning you woke up and found out everything that you thought about Obama's mother, was actually true about Romney's mother, would you switch your vote?" You cannot be serious. Okay, admittedly I don't have 14,729 posts to my credit, but I have read that many or more comments in my time here, and I have to say that that line ranks among the very most inane I have ever run across at FR.
If there were a revelation like that it would make me first of all double-check what planet I'm on. Once that was confirmed, I would question every single positive notion I had ever held (few though they may be) about Romney, or any candidate for that matter.
For a candidate that everyone, everywhere knows has had plenty of controversy surrounding their origins such as "Obama" has, such information would, if proven true, be more than damaging to the campaign. It would be positively cataclysmic.
Here's a bunny.
