UPDATE:
For all the ' What did Obama say about this?' questions, the person who SHOULD have had a microphone in his face is Nikki Tinker's mentor - Dark Sith Ford. After all, Obama didn't max out contributions to Tinker's campaign. Dark Sith did.

Well, he released this statement...

“Whenever race, religion or gender is invoked in a political contest, it generally means the candidate has run out of legitimate arguments for why he/she should be elected. Communities and nations are always made weaker when political figures try to divide us for political advantage. It is my strong hope that lessons will be learned.”
