THOUGH MAVERICK WOULD HAVE SAID MIMEOGRAPH:
Clinton Debate Gibe: 'Change You Can Xerox' (JOSH GERSTEIN, February 22, 2008, NY Sun)
"I think if your candidacy is going to be about words, then they should be your own words," Mrs. Clinton replied. "That's I think a very simple proposition. Lifting whole passages from someone else's speeches is not change you can believe in, it's change you can Xerox," she said, delivering the most memorable line of the night, but also eliciting a chorus of boos from the audience at the University of Texas at Austin."That's not what happened," Mr. Obama insisted.
"You know what, Barack, it is," she said, as the booing continued. "If you look at the YouTube of these videos, it does raise questions."
Good line, but it would be better if anyone under 40 knew what a Xerox was. Posted by Orrin Judd at February 22, 2008 1:00 PM
Well, that's balanced out by the fact that no one over 40 knows what YouTube is...
