The First Big President-Elect Gaffe??
President-elect Barack Obama was asked about the dog he might get for his children as a reward for the long campaign season in his first-ever press conference since winning the election.
My jaw dropped at his response.
After explaining the dog had to be hypo-allergenic because of his daughter Malia's allergies Obama said he'd like to adopt a rescue dog but that could be difficult because "a lot of shelter dogs are mutts like me."
Obama, of course, is half-black.
