"But doesn't it seem like Chelsea's sort of being pimped out in some weird sort of way?" -- NBC News' David Shuster, talking with pundit Bill Press on MSNBC's "Tucker," Feb. 7, 2008.

As the whole world knows by now, Shuster's ill-conceived and crass remark about the former First Daughter has rocked the race for the White House; the high visible newsman has been suspended by MSNBC, and the Hillary Clinton campaign has gone so far as to say it won't debate Barack Obama on the cable network. (One was scheduled for later this month.)

Make no mistake, what Shuster said was pretty stupid and in bad taste. But was it the worst thing ever said about Chelsea Clinton in the public arena?

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno." -- Sen. John McCain, speaking to a Republican dinner, June 1998.
