A couple of observations:
The Jerk is a great movie. It makes me laugh every time I see it.
I didn't see the speech and know nothing about Obama's quote other than what you wrote but I don't think anyone wants to get in a debate with McCain about having a hard life. Growing up without his father around had to be difficult for Obama but McCain's 5 years as a POW trumps anything either Obama or Hilary can claim as hardships in life.
Is this just an attempt by Obama to give himself some street cred? From what I've heard Obama was raised in a loving home by his Grandparents.
