I notice that you have to reach back to the primaries to quote an Obama gaffe. Would you like to compare McCain and Obama, gaffe-for-gaffe? Now THAT'S a debate I'm willing to have.

I think Obama is the only one running for President that has made the mistake.

Obama referred to AIG as "American Insurance Group" rather than "American International Group" .  Seriously, no kidding.   If he thinks he can fix the economic situation in this country, he should know what AIG stands for.

That's not nearly as bad as Obama forgetting that there are only 50 (not 57) states in the country he wants to be president of. Honestly I don't know exactly where Spain is. I think it's next to France right???

I have to admit... it's pretty sad to not know where spain is.  Not only is it an important country, historically, it's in a very prominent piece of geography and easy to point out.  I mean... I could understand it if it was Gabon or Cameroon -- tiny and insignificant countries with arbitrary political borders... but Spain?  It's mostly coastline on a big bulgy part of Europe.

That is a really common mistake to make. I have seen it twice already in news stories today.
