Attacking wives

This is absurd. There is no qualitative difference between smears about Michelle Obama being anti-American and the DNC asking the McCain campaign why it is violating campaign finance laws by not reimbursing Cindy McCain for the use of her corporate jet. The former is a direct attack on Obama's character. The latter is an attack on the finance practices of the McCain campaign.

But, besides this silliness, I really have to question the wisdom of the McCain campaign making an issue out of this. After all, do they really want to draw attention to this particular aspect of the campaigns finances?
