I have no problem with Hillary's Emotional moment today.
I DO have a problem with Hillary plagiarizing the "Its personal for me" line from Edwards NH debate.

Mark Penn undoubtedly saw that this line caused a positive reaction in the after debate Focus Group, and VOILA!!!!
it appears in the Hillary campaign today.

What a coincidence....NOT.

I have NO problem with the tears, but Hillary should stick to original material.
It looks insincere to parrot the other candidates lines.


The Democratic Party is a BIG TENT, but there is NO ROOM for those
who advance the agenda of THE RICH (Corporate Owners) at the EXPENSE of LABOR and the POOR.

1. THAT'S an important issue to you?
I mean if she were taking some trademark unique stuff, but If somebody says something is personal for them, it not only comes across as plagarism, but it compells you as a voter? C'mon.

3. Actually, NO.
As far as I'm concerned, the WHOLE incident really isn't worth mentioning.
My response is to the Tempest in a Teacup the Hillary supporters have brewed up to spam DU for the next couple of days.

Hillary stealing lines that work well in Focus Groups and then using them the next day is just what I expect from Hillary...more of the same.

BTW: Did you hear Hillary demoted Mark Penn and hired James Carville as her new campaign manager?

Changing snakes in the middle of a campaign is not a good idea.

2. I think it was probably unintentional.
She heard the words, they stuck in her head, and they popped out when she wasn't at her best.

I'm not a Hillary supporter, but I have no feelings one way or the other about her becoming emotional. No, that's not true: I rather welcome the indication that she's not a political robot. She isn't my choice, but she'll have my vote should she get the nomination. Period.

5. I agree, she has probably been going over things she wish she had said
in her head that the other candidates said, perhaps all night with little sleep, and so she has certain lines and such floating around ripe in her subconscious ready to come out.
