This is gonna seriously hurt the Obama campaign. Irony is, I think he really is too thick to understand what he was saying. He was merely regurgitating what someone told him would be a cute line to throw out to his supporters.

The guy is just plain dumb - a man of presidential fiber with any political acumen would have said to his cronies - "are you kidding, I'm not saying that! Don't y'all see how that could be taken?". But instead dumbass throws out the derogatory line (and adds a old-man metaphor to boot) in his jive-turkey voice.

I hope it hurts him, because it was uncalled for. It was definitely meant as a personal insult, it was not about their agenda/issues.

Stupid, and a punk. Adolescent, immature, and probably embraced the line, thinking that as long as he had plausible deniability, it would work in his favor.
