Don't Mispronounce the Name of the State That You're In , Mrs. Obama...
If Hillary Clinton can win New Hampshire because she cried, then Barack Obama could have lost Nevada because his wife mispronounced the state's name. Just two days before the caucuses, she spoke to a crowd in Reno. At it, she called the state Ne-vah-dah. It turns out that they pronounce it Ne-vadd-ah. Hey, I didn't know it either, but I've never been there.
Sure, maybe it's a bit of a stretch to say that Obama lost because of this, but I've seen funnier reasons. Locals take these kind of mistakes as insults, so it's not out of the realm of possibility. Okay, maybe it's a stretch, but i bet Michelle Obama never mispronounces it again - if they let her go there....
