At a campaign speech in Virginia, Obama mis-quoted the death toll from the recent Kansas tornado disaster. He put the figure at 10,000 which is a hair more than the real number, 12. Obama realized his mistake by the end of the speech and noted that "there are going to be times when I get tired," "There are going to be times when I make mistakes."
Candidates always have to be on, on their toes and on the ball. There's no room for error in this media age when stories can be beamed out instantly. It doesn't seem like this is a huge one, but I'm sure we'll catch more soon. (Remember when McCain sang: Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb Bomb Iran)
