The Copycat is getting desperate

In final Iowa blitz, an outraged Clinton channels Sanders

By Lisa Lerer and Ken Thomas?|?AP January 31 at 1:25 PM

AMES, Iowa — Seeking victory in Iowa, Hillary Clinton has begun channeling the economic indignation of her rival Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose unapologetically liberal campaign has tightened the race ahead of Monday’s caucuses and given him a lead in the New Hampshire contest that follows.

Making her closing argument to Iowa caucus-goers, Clinton now cloaks her detailed policy plans in Sanders’ outraged rhetoric. Pharmaceutical pricing “burns” her up. Companies that take advantage of the tax loopholes get her “pretty riled up.” And she promises to “rail away” at any industry that flouts the law.

“I’m going after all of them” she declared in Davenport, her tone escalating to a shout. “When I talk about going after those companies, those businesses, those special interests, I have a much broader target list than my opponents.”

will know this is obvious to them.

She didn't touch on more than half the issues that Bernie brought up UNTIL he did it first.

This is one of my BIG reasons for not voting for her.

I hardly have words...she never met an issue that she couldn't shape-shift on.

The copying of Bernie's platform is simply...lame.

...she deserves to lose.

no integrity
no moral center
no compass
no honor

She's turned into a huge joke.

She will literally do/say ANYTHING to be First Woman President.

NOT!

Good grief. I've lost all respect for her. Her sleazy, filthy campaign is just disgusting. I hope Iowans hate that shit as much as I do.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE
