Don't blame Obama, he's just reading what's in front of him:
For Democratic supporters from 2008 who are thinking of changing sides this election, Obama paraphrased Albert Einstein: "The true sign of madness is if you do the same thing over and over and over again and expect the same result," he said during a rally at the University of Minnesota.Um, that's not right, genius.
Update and mea culpa - It's a little late for this but a commenter found the YouTube video and Obama did not make the aforementioned gaffe. If it makes you feel any better, he included the "car in a ditch" metaphor.

Give the President a break, he's stressed out, what with all the seats Democrats will lose in 9 days.
What stressed out?
Obama cares only about himself, not for anyone else.
That's why he's leasing the entire Country of India; he needs some R&R.
Ha, ha, he said it backwards! Impeach him!
"Ha, ha, he said it backwards! Impeach him!"
Nah. Just use it as another example of what dumbasses people are who keep trying to convince the rest of us how smart this guy is. He's not. He's a relatively intelligent, grossly inexperienced, narcissistic politician, and he is in WAY over his head.
Think how many Ron Burgundy moments Obama would have if his teleprompter was hacked.
I'll never forget how he fumfered and struggled through those McCain debates. My heart went out to that poor man. Sadly, Obama will forever be known as a poor public speaker. It's common sense.
I would dearly love for this to be true, because it's funny, but the reporter apparently botched the quote. Check the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgyFp04fjac
about 11 minutes in.
That's okay. It doesn't matter, because... teleprompter!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, teleprompter! What a clumsy tangle-tongue! I'm filled with longing for a great improvisational speaker like The Great Communicator, Ronald Reagan.
P.S. Teleprompter!
Super-smart Prez can't get by without his crutch.

Hey, remember when George Bush Sr. "didn't understand" a supermarket scanner? That was just as hilarious, and just as accurate!
