Senator Barack Obama has made clear that there was one target in the White House race he considered off limits to Republicans, declaring: "Lay off my wife."
Your wife became a valid target the first time she made a speech or a campaign appearance in your favour. Private or public, it’s a one time decision.

Mrs Obama put herself in the frame as soon as she started making controversial speeches.
