[laughter] ... hey, I didn’t want to get into a Nancy Reagan, uh, thing about doin’ any seances...
A cheap shot at Nancy Reagan, who is currently recovering from a fall in which she broke her hip. Classy.

Yes, let's start attacking an 87 year widow who stood by her husband as he died slowly over a decade from Alzheimer's disease. I'm sure that the Obama fans will say that it was a joke gone bad, but it's clearly the comment of an immature jerk. And it's inaccurate; Nancy was a follower of astrology. Hillary spoke of talking to Eleanor Roosevelt but I suspect that she meant it figuratively.
Postscript - he called Nancy Reagan to apologize - but he's a classless jerk. The real Obama is coming out. And by the way, there is NO office of the president elect.
