You've got to wonder about her character pulling a blatant stunt like that.

2. Ya gotta wonder why she did it
Yeah maybe you're right, maybe she simply figured nobody would nail her.

3. Why isn't the media pouncing on this?
When I heard it on CNN and then on Olbermann, they made mention of it, then went on like it was nothing. Where's the outrage at her hypocracy??? Isn't this far worse than an exuberant victory yell that they crucified Howard Dean for??? Why isn't it being plastered on every news show!

10. Right. And the boos were boos of support for her.
Who really drinks the Kool-Aid?

15. Boos!
Frankly, I think the boos were from Obama supporters. I saw many of his group in the crowd that I've seen at other of his events. It's sort of like when they followed Bush Jr. around and yelled and hollered for him. That's what happens with Obama. Nothing spontaneous is really happening in my opinion. This was all seen during Bush's 2000 campaign. I'm sure that plenty of Obama supporters were in the crowd. And though he is leading now the story of Sinclair is making the rounds. Actually it is all over the net, and people are calling in about it. A friend of mine will be devastated if the Larry Sinclair passes that lie detector test. I realize that the audio is sickening and down low, but the accusations are there, and they need to be explained. If the drug charges are lies, I'll vote for him. I don't care anything about the homosexual allegations, that doesn't bother me at all.

8. Old news - move along - nothing to see here...
How could this have been done to death yesterday if the debate was last night?

Make up your mind before you try to start something over nothing.

13. It was BOTH
That said it was unimportant - as were the two words and pattern from Patrick.

11. My only response to this is
Obama using a liitle bit of Patrick's speech has been getting flamed in the media for, what, a week now? If that deserved such amounts of indignation (which it didn't), then Hillary's use of other speakers' speeches would deserve at least as much (which it doesn't).

12. Especially egregious considering she made it a debate highlight to hammer him about that
It's beyond surreal.

14. They will talk about it tonight. The pundits at MSNBC don't miss much.
Especially when the campaign manager for Hillary e-mails KO and "tells him" what the anaysis of the debate is!

Talk about the height of hypocrisy!
A campaign manager saying "no, this is what she meant, Keith".
KO didn't buy it for a minute.

17. I loved the closing speech and standing ovation
I haven't heard a thing about any of it being plagiarized.
