jerseyfabulousIf you can't find it in yourself to call out crap like this at a campaign event, why should I have any confidence in your ability to make tough decisions as President? You can't even stand up to your friends.
That your campaign is apparently being run by amateurs is a secondary issue. Seriously, at an official campaign event, you should have KNOWN to vet anything a comedian was going to do in advance. Bernie Mac's spiel was either not vetted, or someone in your campaign thought that even though a lot of women in the Democratic party are still not happy with you, a joke implying that women are whores was ok. Either way, you have a problem.
