Obama helps woman during health care speech

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama helped a pregnant woman who was losing her balancing during a speech on the roll out of the new health care law at the White House Monday.

Karmel Allison of San Diego was standing with a group of supporters of the law, better known as Obamacare, in the Rose Garden as she began to sway.

The president quipped, “This is what happens when I talk too long.”

She was then helped away from the stage.
