Hillary again attempts to morph into John Edwards.
In the Texas debate she ended by lifting Edwards' "we'll be just fine, but it is the average American who won't be just fine" line (and Bill's lines too - all AFTER the "silly" "plagiarism" charges against Obama). Well, now it's a twofer. Last night in the end of the debate she again lifted Edwards' signature line about "being a fighter for the average American" and how "the middle class needs a fighter and I'm going to fight for you." I can't believe more people aren't talking about this (unless I've missed something since last night). There should be more comparison YouTube's put up. Think about it. The latest version of Hillary is now the pro-working class populist ala John Edwards. When is Hillary going to grow and decide what, or whom, she wants to be??????

1. All politicians do this. It wasn't a big deal when Obama did it and the same goes with Clinton.
There's only so many ways you can snooker the American people. Of course this shit gets recycled.

2. The point is Clinton tried to make this an issue, then she does it.
Of course they ALL use similar lines to others. They ALL have speechwriters and handlers who give them lines. The POINT my friend is the way Hillary engages in shitty double standards. She goes negative with commentaries and direct mail, then throws a hissy fit when he fires back. She accuses him of "plagiarism," and then does the exact same thing. When she and her people stop, so will I.

4. Hillary is the daughter of a mill worker
They ate drywall when food ran low, which is why Obama is a (insert Mark Penn-inspired attack theme for today). In conclusion, Obama hates poor people.

5. I didn't pick up on those last night
I did in Texas.

Last night, she was starting to sound like Charlie Brown's teacher to me.

6. Obama does the same thing too on the stump
Why didn't you mention that? He now claims he will be a fighter too.
