I find this whole thread very interesting, as I seem to remember that the trend in public opinion has been "leave the family alone".
There was an outcry when talking about Palin's hubby and kids. There was a general request by both campaigns to leave even the immediate families alone. I remember Billy Carter, and Roger Clinton, but the parents, grandparents, and cousins have generally been off limits for many elections, now. Did I just dream this, or has there really been a consensus by the electorate that both the press and the campaigns should leave this stuff alone? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:280147 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
