A slur is just an insult. It used to be commonly "slur on the family name" (i.e. those Johnson boys are nothing but trash). In that sense, this was a slur.
That said, he wasn't really indicating that she was, in point of fact, a slut who slept around or the like. Just that she followed the party line a little too easily.... It's a figure of speech.
I don't mind strong opinions, even opinions with hyperbole and overexpression, being aired. MSNBC apparently did.
