Is it sexist to call a senator a "little girl"? Republican Carl Paladino, New York gubernatorial candidate, doesn't think so. In fact, he has "no regrets" about calling N.Y. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand "Chuck Schumer's little girl."

When pressed on the issue on T.V., Paladino denied that his remarks were sexist and then simply walked out on the interview to avoid further questioning, passing up the opportunity to publicly apologize.

Paladino might have thought by walking out on his interview the issue would just go away, but sexist politicians should know their language has consequences. Demand that Paladino apologize to Kirsten Gillibrand for calling her a "little girl."
