I'm with you here. These posts that try establish guilt by association are the most annoying to me, personally. Each of the candidates knows many people, has many campaign contributors, attends parties, poses for photo ops with all kinds of people. Some of this stuff is just ridiculous. A photo of somebody shaking hands with Fidel Castro does not mean that person is a friend or supporter of Castor or his policies. Remember when they tried to use this against Obama, because he knew the guy who bombed a building in the 1960s? Yeah, well I knew a guy who went to prison for murder. Probably every one of knows somebody who did something bad. In some cases, the bad person is an immediate family member. So what? Good luck in calling out the nonsense.
