58. AND he took his own elderly mother on the campaign trail

Tue Feb 4, 2014, 09:20 PM

Feb 2014

when he was running for VP to apparently augment the statement he was making he would not cut Social Security. He had her standing right beside him as he spoke. I just could not believe the audacity of lying while campaigning in front of Mom about something that could impact her income....

There is no low too low for him to sink while campaigning for office.
