The publisher of "Godless," the Crown Publishing Group, issued a statement saying it had reviewed the "the allegations of plagiarism" in her book and "found them to be as trivial and meritless as they are irresponsible."

Glad to see her publisher standing by her.....

In "punditry", most rhetorical "turns of a phrase" are as common as E A B or A C D chord progressions (among numerous others) in blues-rock music. They have been and will continue to be used all the time, and to investigate whether somebody "stole" them is an exercise for simpletons. The Estate of Robert Johnson should be worth trillions by now.
