John Walsh Does the Expected and Drops out of the Race; Democrats Search for Alternate Candidate

Walsh is out?!?

Walsh: “I am ending my campaign so that I can focus on fulfilling the responsibility entrusted to me as your U.S. senator" #mtpol
— Chuck Johnson (@c_sjohnson) August 7, 2014

It was almost immediately pointed out that "I am ending my campaign so that I can focus on fulfilling the responsibility entrusted to me as your U.S. senator" was directly plagiarized without attribution from a 1972 speech by Thomas Eagleton.

(That's just a joke, in case it's not clear.)
