Absolutely, it was an incredibly stupid thing to say.
But to think we will be screwed if he winds up as VP....yes, he has an ego and a loose tongue, but he is incredibly knowledgeable in foreign affairs.
As opposed to Palin who McCain and others have said has foreign affairs experience because Alaska is in close proximity to Russia (paraphrasing).
And lets not forget these gems by our current VP:
"I had other priorities in the sixties than military service." –on his five draft deferments.
"Conservation may be a sign of personal virtue but it is not a sufficient basis for a sound, comprehensive energy policy."
"My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators." - on the day of our invasion of Iraq
"I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency." -- on the Iraq insurgency, June 20, 2005
"Go fuck yourself." --to Sen. Patrick Leahy, during an angry exchange on the Senate floor about profiteering by Halliburton
