Over the course of this primary season we’ve all been a little on edge, working at a level that usually calms down around Super-Tuesday. But with a hotly contested race in the Democratic Primary, everyone has been working to the edge.

So, we can understand when comments or jokes are made that offend some people. However, we also remember that these people are running for an election and should be a little more careful with what they say.

From Senator Obama’s “bitter” comments, to last weeks comments by Senator Clinton on the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy; everyone needs to be a little more careful.

Fox analyst, Liz Trotta found that out as well.

Discussing Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s reference last week to the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy during the 1968 primary season, the Fox analyst, Liz Trotta, said Sunday that “now we have what some are reading as a suggestion that somebody knock off Osama, um, Obama — well, both, if we could.”

Apparently startled, Eric Shawn, the Fox News anchor, said, “Talk about how you really feel,” as Ms. Trotta laughed.

Trotta apologized tonight, stating it was a poor attempt at humor; but it serves as another reminder of just how tense things are, and how careful everyone needs to be in this age of instant communication.
