In the old days a politician's children were considered off-limits to the media and campaign attacks. It's hard to make that argument now when the daughter of the leading Republican contender is proudly displaying on her Facebook profile that she is supporting one of the leading Democratic contenders!

Yes, Facebook is indeed awesome. It is only here that we could see that Rudy Giuliani's own daughter apparently doesn't even think he'd be the best man to run the country - she's supporting Barack Obama.

From The New York Times:

"On her profile in Facebook, the popular online social networking site, Ms. Giuliani, 17, listed her political views as “liberal” and noted her membership in a group called “Barack Obama (One Million Strong for Barack).”"

She was quickly silenced and no doubt forced to take down her public support of Obama lest daddy cut her off - but it's too late; a Facebook profile view is worth a thousand words.
