A Democratic representative from New York has fired his campaign spokesperson after she gave a newspaper a list of what she called "Jewish money" going to his Republican opponent.

In an effort to show that Republican challenger Mike Grimm has received most of his financial support from donors outside of New York's 13th district, Democratic Rep. Mike McMahon's re-election campaign gave the New York Observer a list of more than 80 Jewish donors to Grimm.

The list was entitled "Grimm Jewish Money Q2."

At least half a dozen of the donors on the list live on Staten Island, which is part of the 13th district.

3. Remember that the "Fightin' 13th"

is over 76% white, and does not have as high a Jewish demographic as other districts in NYC have.

sincerely,

Former Resident of the 13th

PS, the 13th is also where a lot of idiotic xenophobes live:
