Will Romney Camp Go After Elizabeth Warren Retroactively?

She made this statement (:50 in) last year and it's almost ver batim to what President Obama got so much guff from Camp Romney. Will they also take her out of context retroactively?

Warren's rant is, for me, the most significant and clear oratory laying out the key concepts that nobody gets rich without the help of others and of government programs.

That speech alone makes me love her more than any other politician out there.

It was spontaneous and heartfelt, and had just enough anger to send it home.

Obama's, by contrast, was derivative and casual.

but President Obama did not articulate it as well as Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth Warren lives and breaths this sediment, President Obama does but not as much. You can hear her the passion where President Obama tried but did not come up to Elizabeth Warren's passion.
