Hillary Rips Off Elizabeth Warren's 'Fighting Chance' Line

Should Fauxcahontas be flattered . . . or furious?  The title of Elizabeth Warren's new book is "A Fighting Chance," a "rabble-rousing" rant by the populist from the Harvard faculty lounge.

So here comes Hillary Clinton, who in a speech this week just happened to say "I want every one of our children to feel that they are inheriting the best of America ... that this country is on your side; that this country will give you the fighting chance, the fair shot you deserve."  Pure coincidence? Not when it comes to America's most calculating politician.  Not when Hillary lifts the line from the woman whose name is bruited about as potentially offering Clinton her most serious challenge for the Dem nomination.

So, how has the MSM covered Hillary's heist of Warren's signature slogan?  Crickets, of course.  Note that the quote from Clinton using the line is contained in a Los Angeles Times article entitled "Hinting at 2016, Hillary Clinton Focuses on Humanizing Her Image." Don't tell me Clinton isn't eminently beatable when even a leading member of the liberal media like the LA Times portrays her greatest challenge as "humanizing" herself!
