(Newser) – Mitt Romney borrowed a phrase from Hillary Clinton today but put his own twist on it, warning of a "vast left-wing conspiracy." The media is a part of it, he explained on Breitbart TV, and their intention is to "do everything they can to divert from the message people care about, which is a growing economy that creates more jobs and rising incomes," he explained. "There will be an effort by the quote vast left-wing conspiracy to work together to put out their message and to attack me," he warned. Clinton trotted out the phrase "vast right-wing conspiracy"in 1998 when explaining who she thought was behind the sexual harassment charges Bill was facing, notes CNN.

Listen Hillary is so twisted,you do not have to help twist anything she has to say. Romney does not need Hillary to help him in any way.He knows what to say way much better then Obama and Hillary.
