My opponent gives speeches.

I love the fact that Ms. Clinton is going around giving speeches, saying:

My opponent gives speeches. I offer solutions

To complete her thought fragment: “I offer solutions in speeches.” Such an incredibly empty point from my perspective. But obviously polling has shown that deriding”speeches” works – even if you do it in a speech.

I first noticed this on Ms. Clinton’s first appearance on Meet the Press after Iowa in which she, for the first time I noticed, repeated variations of the line, “My opponent is running based on a speech he made five years ago…” And, thanks no doubt to Mark Penn, she’s still going at it.
