Similar Words, Different Candidates
I could not help but post this article too. Since our class revolves around a lot of language and politics, it was interesting to see this table that the New York Times had created. It compares the words both Romney and Obama use at their National Conventions. The words and phrases are also gathered from their supporters, so don't be surprised that Bill Clinton, Michelle Obama, Clint Eastwood, John McCain, and Jimmy Carter show up here as well.
