Posted by JAMES MITCHELL- The crowd at the debate in Austin tonight seemed less than thrilled with Senator Clinton’s swipe at Senator Obama when she pointed out Texas Senator Kirk Watson’s recent inability to highlight a single legislative accomplishment of Senator Obama while being interviewed by Chris Matthews on MSNBC. Clinton used the comment to support her claim that Obama lacks her record of accomplishments and experience. The crowd responded with powerful applause, however, to Clinton’s critique of Obama’s alleged plagiarism of Massachusetts Governor Duval Patrick.
