Personally, I think Hillary has made a mountain out of a mole hill in terms of Obama's use of some lines from Duval Patrick speech - especially since Obama and Patrick are friends and Patrick is one of Obama's advisors. More over, Obama used similar lines back in his 2004 address to the Democratic Convention. There are surely more important issues to discuss. In any event, some are now saying that Hillary has set herself up for allegations. You be the judge:
Clinton Last Night: "You know, whatever happens, we're going to be fine. You know, we have strong support from our families and our friends. I just hope that we'll be able to say the same thing about the American people. And that's what this election should be about." - Democratic Debate, 2/21/07
John Edwards: "What's not at stake are any of us. All of us are going to be just fine no matter what happens in this election. But what's at stake is whether America is going to be fine." - Democratic Debate, 12/13/07
John Edwards: "I want to say this to everyone: with Elizabeth, with my family, with my friends, with all of you and all of your support, this son of a millworker's gonna be just fine. Our job now is to make certain that America will be fine." - Edwards Speech, 1/30/08
