I Missed This One The First Time Around

This was initially reported by David Corn at Salon back in 1998, Attytood brought it up after NBC's David Schuster decided to shoot his mouth off, but I saw it first at AMERICAblog.

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno." - John McCain in 1998

That has to be one of the most disgraceful, no, make that dispicable attempts at "humor" I have ever seen.

And one of the commenters at Attytood says McCain's
"joke" was a prepared remark, and not off the cuff. Even worse.

Is there a video of this somewhere? I just did a search on YouTube and nothing turned up.

holy jeebus, did McCain really say that?

as much as i find McCain the LEAST offensive of the Republicans, i think some people are kidding themselves thinking McCain won't use typical smearing, lying tactics against the Dems in the general.
