#StealTheBern: In final Iowa blitz, an outraged Clinton channels Sanders

Wow, this is just sad. It's almost as if she thinks people have amnesia and don't notice her donor list, the millions she takes from the insurance industry, her record, or reality.

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Seeking victory in Iowa, Hillary Clinton has begun channeling the economic indignation of her rival Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose unapologetically liberal campaign has tightened the race ahead of Monday's caucuses and given him a lead in the New Hampshire contest that follows.

Making her closing argument to Iowa caucus-goers, Clinton now cloaks her detailed policy plans in Sanders' outraged rhetoric. Pharmaceutical pricing "burns" her up. Companies that take advantage of the tax loopholes get her "pretty riled up." And she promises to "rail away" at any industry that flouts the law.

"I'm going after all of them" she declared in Davenport, her tone escalating to a shout. "When I talk about going after those companies, those businesses, those special interests, I have a much broader target list than my opponents."

But that feeling of déjà vu has to be hitting pretty hard right now!

Awesome flavor btw!

If HRC had a grey bald spot I'd swear she was doing a Bernie imitation. It literally sounded like one of his speeches.

As she rolled off a litany of progressive ideas I was afraid some listeners would believe what she was saying. This is the nature of politics today; say whatever you want, regardless of it being true or not.

Amazing.
