"Drudge now has an image of the mailer posted on his website and two links on it."

Who would haver thought that a campaign mailer, albeit a particularly nasty one, would so damage a leading candidate.

I bet it didn't go to more than 5,000 people.

Now it's a leading story in the NY Times and CNN. Probably a few front pages of other major papers by tomorrow AM.

I guess Ted Cruz doesn't have as many friends as he thought he did.

Still early in campaign. Hope he recovers. I am Trump first. People do not seem to understand the percentage that do not want Trump or Cruz. If Cruz gets out, hello Marco. Cruz needs to do well.

But millions now know of it. This is an adaptation of old direct mail advertising gimmick that was conceived of before the rise of social media. That's why they didn't anticipate the (still-mounting) blowback.

So how many would have made it ok? Just wondering where the cut off on creepy/spooky vs. Invasion of privacy is.
