Hillary Clinton hits Barack Obama with plagiarism allegation
Mr Obama admitted making a mistake in not crediting Mr Patrick. "He had suggested that we use these lines . . . I thought they were good lines," Mr Obama said. "I’m sure I should [have given him credit], but didn’t this time." An adviser to Mr Obama said that Mr Obama and Mr Patrick were close friends who "share thoughts on ideas and language". Mr Patrick released a statement supporting the senator. David Plouffe, a top Obama aide, said the Clinton campaign was "clutching at straws" over the plagiarism accusations, and trying to create "distractions". The Republican attack document on Mr Obama, which emerged during a "winter retreat" session attended by Mr Rove in Los Angeles on Sunday, lists five main alleged weaknesses to be exploited if he ends up facing Mr McCain in the battle for the White House.
