      Obama replied, shaking his head, "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears. Me thinks the lady doth protest too much! Methinks she has a lean and hungry look, done to death by slanderous tongue. Blow, blow thou winter wind. Get thee to a nunnery."

      Senator Clinton hotly responded, "Think you I am no stronger than my sex? That man that hath a tongue I say is no man. Here's ado to honesty and thus I clothe my naked villainy!"

      Obama's calm retort ended the back and forth, "I am constant as the northern star. What, my dear lady Disdain! Are you yet living?"

      ...Senator McCain responded to charges of excessive numbers of lobbyists on his campaign by singing "I'm not strong enough to say no." (Blackhawk)

        Hillary's highlight " We'll be fine, but will America ?" ironically was from John Edwards in an earlier debate.

          Is this a ...."imitation is the highest form of flattery." moment in American politics via plagiarized passages.

          And these people said they had original ideas.

                  Brilliant. From the movie "North by Northwest" borrowed from the play, "Hamlet." Origin, Shakespeare, if he really existed.
