no, it's a bad analogy, whether it's about adoption rates or anything else. The two are not much analogous in any direction

Cruz said the bible isn't good!!!!

During the debate, Vitter said his campaign had not directly hired campaign trackers. Edwards, a state representative, accused Vitter of lying about hiring trackers by classifying the money spent on retaining the investigative agency as "legal fees."

"He's actually sending private investigators to spy on the sheriff," Edwards said. "There's enough scandal and embarrassment here to last a lifetime. Louisiana doesn't need any more of that."

Vitter then accused Edwards of acting "holier than thou" while running tough negative ads, including one that invoked Vitter's connection to the so-called "D.C. Madam" prostitution scandal.

"With re­spect to the neg­at­ive ad, if it’s a low blow it’s only be­cause that’s where you live, Sen­at­or,” Ed­wards said. “It’s 100 per­cent truth­ful. The fact of the mat­ter isyou didn’t say it was un­true. You want me to take it down be­cause you don’t like it. I un­der­stand that you don’t like it. It hits you where you live."

Vitter charged that Edwards, a former Army Ranger, wasn't "living by the honor code."

"I am not looking at any video footage from you. I haven't hired a private investigator to go after you ... you're a liar and you're a cheater and you're a stealer and I don't tolerate that," Edwards shot back.
