    Asking her is fine, leave all politicians kids out of the spotlight (unless they are campaigning).

      Sorry, that was thrown out the window when Rush Limbaugh went after Chelsea Clinton. And it really went out the window when the entire Republican media sphere went after Sasha and Malia Obama.

        And it was wrong then and remains wrong now. Kids can’t help who their parents are, leave them out of it.

          But it’s not about the kid. It’s about the shameless double-standard. It’s about Nikki as a parent as well.

            Listen the kids aren’t putting themselves in the spotlight, there’s no reason to drag them in to it. Drag the candidate all you want but leave the kids alone until they decide to join the circus on their own.

              She’s not a child and campaigns with her mother. Maybe focus on the single issue instead of making it about something it isn’t.
