The Plagirism Issue

Obama just got the question on the Deval Patrick plagirism, and he's hit back well. He's dismissed the whole issue as the absurd two day story that it is (How can he plagiarize from his national co-chair who suggested he use the line).

Clinton is actually pursuing the plagirism issue.

It looks like they are going to get into this. Wow! The crowd actually booed for a second. Does Hillary really think this is the winning attack line? Plagiarism?

Now she's hitting him on Health Care. Then tension is palpable. She really won't let this me against the world theme go.

Obama's speaking now, and you can tell that he's not really excited about getting into a fight with her. He doesn't like that kind of politics. Is this a weakness that McCain, the warrior, can exploit?

He's making the argument now, correctly I think, that Hillary went about getting universal health care the wrong way back when she was first lady. He can keep hurting her on this point because even a number of democrats have made this argument about her. She thinks that she knows more than everyone else, and can't understand how not involving other important political operators in the process of deciding on universal health care will poison them against her.

Now she won't let the Health Care thing go. Their differences on this will not be enough to get her votes. She looks pushy.
