How was the presidential campaign of 1828 for Andrew Jackson and Quincy Adams?​

Andrew Jackson accused John Quincy Adams of having been a pimp while serving as a diplomat in Russia. Lurid accusations circulated by handbill and in partisan newspapers. Jackson won the election of 1828, and his administration got off to a bitter beginning when Adams refused to attend his inauguration.

The campaign was marked by large amounts of nasty "mudslinging." Jackson's marriage, for example, came in for vicious attack. When Jackson married his wife Rachelin 1791, the couple believed that she was divorced, however the divorce was not yet finalized, so he had to remarry her once the legal papers were complete. In the Adams campaign's hands, this became a scandal.

Rachel Jackson had been having chest pains throughout the campaign, and she was traumatized by the personal attacks on her marriage. She became ill and died on December 22, 1828. Jackson accused the Adams campaign, and Henry Clay even more so, of causing her death, saying, "I can and do forgive all my enemies. But those vile wretches who have slandered her must look to God for mercy."
