You know, I would fucking hate to be a politician. If you ever make a fucking joke it offends SOMEONE and you have to go saving face for WEEKS if it does. Personally I found nothing offensive about that. Nothing funny either but it is what it is: a bad joke. Not an OFFENSIVE joke.

Now I'm not trying to stick up for Hilary because I dislike her and her politics but that's beside the point. I think that it's idiotic that she should HAVE to regret the joke because there was nothing wrong with it.

On another note you really should make sure something is funny before you try to make it funny in front of a large crowd otherwise there is a good chance you will end up looking stupid.

EDIT: By the way, it is not a stereotypical joke. That is not what she was getting at. She was just trying to channel some humor using Gandhi's name as a "Gas Station attendant." She could have quoted somone with a completely "American" name and done the same thing. It was inopportune that she used Gandhi's in particular because people would misinterpret it in a "racist" or "stereotypical" sense.
