English term or phrase: mudslinging
Definition from The Washington Post:
A personal attack made by one candidate or campaign against another.

Example sentence(s):
  • Mudslinging goes wrong when it is used indiscriminately and becomes noise that few listen to and most condemn. Mudslinging
  • This year hasn't seen that level of mudslinging, but the tone of the race is undeniably more negative than in the states that came earlier on the calendar. CBS News
  • Enough political mudslinging can lead to a candidate dropping out of the race, especially if his or her family is being viciously attacked. Political mudslinging can become so ugly that is can cause a potential nominee to lose favor with his or her political party. WiseGEEK

Example sentence(s):
  • Novosti ce u istom broju od 19. marta dati nekoliko vesti sa crnogorske predizborne scene, pa cak i jedan opsirni tekst dopisnika koji se upustio u analitiku: "Predizborna kampanja u Crnoj Gori tece, za sada, medjusobnim optuzivanjem i blacenjem politickih protivnika. Reci se ne biraju, a iznosenje 'prljavog vesa' se tek ocekuje." - http://www.nuns.org.yu/dosije/09/20.jsp  
  • Pozamašna lista skandaloznih dešavanja u Skupštini juče je obogaćena vulgarnim iznošenjem prljavog veša, a nekadašnje stranačke kolege, sada ljuti protivnici, Tomislav Nikolić (Napred Srbijo) i Gordana Pop Lazić (SRS), sem o spornim mandatima, svađali su se oko toga ko ima ljubavnike i ljubavnice, ko je kome plakao na ramenu... - http://www.danas.rs/vesti/politika/ljuba
