Obama

Obama's opponents are accusing him of plagerising his friends speech. Obama did in fact use his friends speech, but he had his friends permission....therefore it's not concidered plagerism. Obama's opponents fear his success and the large numbers of people that he is drawing that they are now trying to sling whatever they can his way to try and make him look bad. It was a good speech that deserved to be heard and related to Obama's message. The Washington Post said-
"The clearest comparison, the experts say, is to John F. Kennedy, who like Obama was able to mix high seriousness and humor. The shared cadences with Kennedy are not entirely a surprise -- Obama's young speechwriters are steeped in the addresses of Kennedy and his brother Robert, and the campaign has been getting informal advice from Kennedy speechwriter Ted Sorensen. " Obama poses a threat to the Republican party and to Hillary Rodom Clinton...so they are trying to get anything negative to stick to him.
