PR: So what else is new?

New Progressive Party (NPP) Sen. Norma Burgos accused Popular Democratic Party (PDP) gubernatorial candidate Anibal Acevedo Vila of plagiarizing an idea that former Gov. Pedro Rossello had presented in 1994 for the economic development of the island.

On Monday, Acevedo Vila announced a four-step economic development plan to transform Puerto Rico into a worldwide technological research and production center.

“Anibal Acevedo Vila is renaming a strategy that Pedro Rossello successfully began to implement in 1994, and is trying to peddle it as his own,” Burgos said in a prepared statement.

What is she fussing about? The guy's a Democrat! Didn't a Democrat president in this country make a huge name for himself as "the best president ever" with Republican ideas?
