I was also going to say lots of people, especially from the south, say nuk-u-lar. It's accent and dialect as much as mis-pronuncation. I'll find myself saying it sometimes if I'm speaking quickly, and I'm from New England! It just runs out that way.

My dad is one of the smartest people I know, he has mulitple masters degrees, and is a master tax preparer for HR Block, and is one of the few people I know who can read faster than I; having said this, he is physically incapable of saying Colorado or Potato correctly. They are always "Codorado" and "Bodado" or "Bodada." Even if he tries. He can say Color, he can say Ado, but he can't say Colorado.
