the Clinton campaign is a desperate sad joke

1. Very good! The whole statement:

Obama's already on record as admitting he borrows lines from Patrick (and vice versa). Stumping in New Hampshire last December, Obama said: "But you know in the end, don’t vote your fears. I’m stealing this line from my buddy (Massachusetts Gov.) Deval Patrick who stole a whole bunch of lines from me when he ran for the governorship, but it’s the right one, don’t vote your fears, vote your aspirations. Vote what you believe."

5. LOL.. we had the same idea IndyOp. Think this will put the issue to rest? Seriously, after

the blowout victory in WI and HA tomorrow, this crap is good for not even another few hours, IMO.

2. Allow me to post the full quote for those too lazy to look it up..

Mike and Noam have already done a great job explaining the ridiculousness of the Clinton campaign's charge that Obama plagiarized from Deval Patrick, but I thought I'd add one more point.

7. This needs to go to Pat Buchanan and Tweety bird......

I never thought I'd see the day of this viciousness....in my book it's swiftboating, from a Democrat!

Thanks for posting this. Bookmarking it. K&R

I look forward to the Clintons' next desperate gambit.

8. Just another Clinton dirty trick to distract that she has personally outsourced jobs to India

with Tata Consultancy in Buffalo.

9. The pettiness will sink her further.

Maybe that sort of behavior would work if in a race where two Republicans were vying for the nomination, but not in this one.
