142. I don't think it would have mattered, frankly.
They knew about McClurkin, they heard the outcry from GLBTs and their allies and still they allowed him to perform and deliver his homophobic harangue a full five days later.

If Caldwell's intention were to catch Obama in a trap, why did he scrub his website after people took notice? It took me about ten minutes to find that site using Google. Unless they're grossly incompetent, I find it hard to believe Obama's people aren't doing such basic vetting of the people they choose to represent them at official campaign events.
