Should We Support Widespread Ads Exposing McCain As a Known and Admitted Adulterer?

McCain has admitted cheating on his first wife, who is crippled, with a rich young heiress.

Should we do an ad campaign making sure voters know this?

I think conservatives have a right to know the person they are voting for as President isn't conservative.
 
Pretty split so far.

I favor ads that emphasize Dr. Paul's family values and the lack of skeletons in his closet. Ads that blatantly call him electable and use his integrity as the reason why. In other words ads that slam McCain without even mentioning his name.

Is that a yes or a no?

Exactly.

Why would the base that values family values support a man who is known to have cheated on his wife?

McCain has an admitted past of infidelity,

Conservatives will NEVER unite in supporting an adulterer.

We need to hit him and hit him HARD over this.

No.

we should spend any resources educating people on Ron Pauls message.

McCain doesn't need any help imploding. It is the only thing certain in this election. Why waste our money on it?
 
I like the idea of just presenting ad of how Ron is a solid family man. Voters will add 1 and 1 for themselves.
 
Its irrelevent, he is going to lose the general anyway, and it makes us look bad within the party. Might as well go along and wave goodbye to the Titanic, then we can pick them up in the Ron Paul Revolution lifeboats when the ship sinks.

"Why did this happen?"

"Because you didn't listen to us when we tried to warn you about the iceburg."
 
Brings whole new meaning to the claim, "Dr. Paul has earned a solid reputation for just saying no to lobbyists," doesn't it?
 
attack ads no. but i understand the logic. People are sheep and don't do research by themselves
pointing that mccain cheated on his wife in an argument yes.
 
Yes we should spread the word when we can...attack ads no...

I think that's spot on.

There's NO need to bring Ron anywhere near this, but the voters need to KNOW the sort of man that McCain REALLY is.

He runs on being honest and principled.

He has a history of womanizing, he cheated on a crippled wife who had stood by him while he was away with a rich heiress who was 17 years younger than him.

That's COLD. He's a liar and a cheat. The man has NO heart.

We NEED to because Ron HASN'T lost yet.

If you'll notice, there is no nominee yet, and only 3 people left in the race.

We can educate people in the future about the message, but the iron's hot, and we need to strike while it is.

We can force McCain to drop out, and that will leave only Ron and Huck in the race.

Absolutely. If we don't take every advantage or opportunity to make as many dents in McCain as we possibly can, we just allow ourselves to get steamrolled.
 
McCain will never drop out. 2 reasons.

1. Ego. Nuff said.
2. The Media loves him right now... until the general election when they will distroy him to get a liberal in office.
 
McCain's indiscretions with his first wife are well known and largely excused as a result of post-traumatic stress from his POW experience.

More important than focusing on the adultery angle is exposing him as a consumate opportunist and highlighting who his advisors are IMO.
