Hillary Clinton's Texas-size moment

    There must be a misprint in this article

    Obama's campaign can't be making an issue about Hillary's "we're going to be fine" line -- because that is "silly season" -- Obama said that himself. Or is it only "silly season" when the charges are against him? Talk about pathetic -- everybody says or has said "we're going to be fine" at some point in their lives -- that isn't a "lift" from Edwards the same way Obama lifted an entire paragraph from Deval.
