Saw a post out there about Maureen Dowd getting caught plagiarizing. We need a :potkettle: smiley.
Anywho, in case anyone wants backup for my response, I was looking at Wiki, and check this out:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Biden_presidential_campaign,_1988#Aftermath"In any case, Biden would not run again for the presidency until his 2008 campaign, twenty years later. This time he made it to the Iowa caucuses, but withdrew after a poor showing. Meanwhile, Biden and Kinnock had become close friends after the plagiarism incident. Meeting in August 2008, after Biden had been chosen by Democratic nominee Barack Obama as his running mate, Biden introduced Kinnock to his Senate staff by saying: “Hey, you people! Do you know this guy? He used to be my greatest speechwriter.”<41> Obama and Biden proceeded to win the general election against the Republican ticket of John McCain and Sarah Palin; Biden's 1988 campaign lapses were never a significant issue in the race, and Biden invited Kinnock to the inauguration.<42>"
