The 2016 presidential campaign has seen scathing insults traded between candidates. It was a week of political mudslinging on the campaign trail among GOP contenders in advertisements, while a Hillary Clinton ally filed three complaints with the Federal Election Commission against Bernie Sanders’ campaign.
Kasich Vs. Cruz: “Many just call him Lyin’ Ted”
Ohio Gov. John Kasich is coming out of the shadows and is no longer Mr. Nice Guy. Kasich, who is trailing GOP front-runner Donald Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, received help from a Super PAC. New Day for America borrowed a line from Trump, calling Cruz ‘Lyin’ Ted.”
“Lied about Ben Carson to steal a win in Iowa,” the narrator said in reference to Cruz campaign staffers who pushed out information on the night of Iowa caucuses, saying that Carson was dropping out of the race. The ad also shows Cruz’s nose wrapping around his neck three times.

Trusted Leadership PAC, which is supporting Cruz, knocked Kasich’s “liberal record” and claimed that millionaires working with billionaire financier George Soros, a Democrat, are “bankrolling” super PACs supporting the governor.
Kasich’s campaign has argued that a vote for Cruz is a vote for Clinton. Cruz’s team, has maintained that Kasich would only help Trump get the GOP nomination.
