As we approach the final weekend in the middle of a landslide, undoubtedly some desperate decisions are being made. “Should we launch that last minute personal attack.”
Candidates gamble that they won’t self-destruct in the launch, but also risk that they’ll be hit by a similar personal attack by the aggrieved candidate who will then feel he has nothing to lose.
Candidates launching last-minute nuclear options better be sure they have nothing personal they don’t want in the next TV ad.
Campaigns should never stray from issues and votes, but turnabout is fair play. Candidates should never walk through a door that they’d rather remain closed.
