Jay Leno mocks Ward in monologue
On the Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight, Leno played the entire video mashup that juxtaposes clips of Barack Obama's 2004 Democratic national convention speech with similar turns of phrase in a speech by Idaho GOP congressional candidate Vaughn Ward at the Idaho state capitol this spring, a mashup put together by Idaho GOP legislative candidate Lucas Baumbach. Leno's kicker: "When they asked this guy if he thought he could get away with this, he said, 'Yes I can! Yes I can!'"
