Senator Darling's Sleazy Negative Attack

If you've ever met Senator Alberta Darling, you probably share what my view of her was until recently -- a nice lady but not a lot of substance.  However, her last attack on her opponent, State Representative Sheldon Wasserman is not only ridiculous, it's downright sleazy.

Darling is claiming that Wasserman, who by the way is an OB/GYN, is complicit in diseminating information which questions Darling's health since she is a breast cancer survivor.

Could somebody explain to me how a doctor who has dedicated his entire professional life to women's healthcare would, by any remote stretch of the imagination, take advantage of Darling's past health issues?

Darling may be willing to spit in the face of everything that Wasserman has stood for in his entire professional career, but the question is, will voters buy into her deceptive ploys in November?
