Obama while visiting with Leno: "I didn't want to let Detroit go bankrupt."

He was answering Jay's question as to BO's pick in the World Series.

I thought it was a great line.

Leno asked him who he liked in the WS.

Obama said he'd spent a lot of time in Detroit lately. And then he hit him with the punch line.
