Hey, We’ve All Been There

Barack Obama confused Hillary Clinton and Britney Spears in Texas today:

“At a time when we’ve got bigger challenges than any time in our history and you’re running ads with Hillary and er – with Britney and ah Paris in it…”

He was also caught closing his eyes several times before a speech in San Francisco. Perhaps McCain’s slow start in the general election was a head-fake, so that he could proceed to crush the newcomer by campaigning him under the table, like any tough old sailor would do.

Who should be more insulted? Britney or Hillary?
