How is that playing devil's advocate? Are you implying that if such a campaign were to hurt a candidate you don't personally approve of, it would be perfectly fine?

No, I'm saying that having even massive dirty like this on a candidate apparently doesn't prevent them from winning anyways. A common response to pussy gate was that you hear stuff like that in any mens room. So digging up dirty from twenty years ago from someone Facebook page will likely be met with the same response.
