Can you help me find this Obama quote?
KO keeps referring to Obama saying to a reporter "Consider the possibility that I might have some idea what I'm doing". I want to put that on a t-shirt (wouldnt that be a FAB t-shirt???) but need to get the quote exactly right. Does anyone know where I can find it?

2. Im sure Olbermann has mentioned it
at least twice. He says Obama was talking to a reporter who was questioning him about some policy or other, and with a twinkle in his eye, Obama said this.

5. I think that's right
does that mean it might not be cited anywhere?

6. I'm not sure. I'd think it would be published in whatever newspaper the review board was from.
Just a guess.

9. While probably not what you're looking for, Obama said to Rachel Maddow a few days before the GE...
"You notice, I think we're winning right now, so maybe I'm doing something right."
