She nailed it again -Hillary Clinton: GOP candidates are 'Trump without the pizzazz or hair

<snip>
A defiant Hillary Clinton unleashed her harshest attacks on Republicans yet, bringing a rowdy crowd of Democratic activists to its feet Friday night by labeling the entire GOP field "just like (Donald) Trump without the pizzaz and the hair."

In a 20-minute speech before 2,000 people at the Iowa Democratic Wing Ding dinner here, Clinton attacked three Republican presidential contenders by name, blasting Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush over education funding.

She hit Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell -- again, by name -- over his accusation that Clinton is playing the "gender card," saying, "If calling for equal pay and paid leave is playing the gender card, then deal me in."

And Clinton bashed the Citizens United-produced attack film "Hillary: The Movie." She noted that the Supreme Court case over the conservative group led to a decision that allowed unfettered money in politics -- a ruling, she said, that "was about me."
