Barack Obama actually said...
We don't need any lectures from a campaign that waited fifteen months to purge the lobbyists from their staff, and only did so because they said it was a 'perception problem.'

Context
Obama's campaign responds to criticism regarding Jim Johnson's resignation, highlighting perceived hypocrisy in McCain's campaign.
