With MSNBC reporting that the Clinton camp's recent attacks on Obama have now turned to plagiarism accusations, it is looking as if Clinton is grasping at straws to maintain her presence in the race. Citing the fact that some of Obama’s January speeches had uncanny resemblances to those of his friend, Massachusetts’ Governor Deval Patrick, Clinton again centered her critique on Obama’s rhetoric. Obama was swift in his nonchalant response that it was “not too big of a deal,” and he has become almost equally lackadaisical towards the threat of his Democratic opponent. As recent as last week, instead of focusing on their respective partisan opponents, Obama and McCain were directing their speeches towards each other. Coupling this seeming dismissal of Clinton as a viable candidate with the latest media outlets beginning to spotlight their coverage on the two men, more and more it appears that despite the states that have yet to cast their votes, the race is coming down to Obama and McCain on the presidential ticket.
