New plagiarism charges from the Clinton camp AFTER the debate and AFTER getting booed for saying "Xerox for Change". It just boggles the mind.

From Political Punch comes the newest allegation:

he Clinton campaign sent this out last night.

Sen. Barack Obama said in last night's debate, "In Youngstown, Ohio, I talked to workers who have seen their plants shipped overseas due to consequences of poor deals it's like NAFTA that have literally seen equipment unbolted from the floors of factories and shipped to China."

Which the Clinton campaign says is similar to this comment from Sen. John Kerry from the 2004 Democratic National Convention: "What does it mean in America today when Dave McCune, a steel worker I met in Canton, Ohio, saw his job sent overseas and the equipment in his factory literally unbolted, crated up, and shipped thousands of miles away along with that job?"

Perhaps this tenuous charge says more about the Clinton campaign than it does about Mr. Obama....and I say that as someone who doesn't thumb his nose at the story of him using, uncredited, the language of Gov. Deval Patrick.

What part of this does the Clinton Camp NOT understand?
