Obama On His Rivals: "That's what happens when you're in Washington too long, you don't speak English anymore, you speak Washington speak."


Obama made fun of the responses his rivals gave in the Nevada debate when they were asked what their weaknesses were. One candidate said "I'm so passionate about helping poor people..." and one candidate said "I'm so impatient to bring about the change this country needs...", he went on, "I answered that I lose papers sometimes, I thought the question was about our weaknesses." As the room erupted in laughter, he continued: “If I had gone last I would have known what the game was. I could have said, ‘Well you know, I like to help old ladies across the street. Sometimes they don’t want to be helped. It’s terrible.’”
