Ignorance Can't Stand in the Way of My Opinion

Uh, What?

Connect the quote with the candidate. Is this Obama, John Edwards, or Hillary Clinton talking about working the stump as a candidate?
"I spend my time out on the campaign trail — it’s usually about what I can do for somebody else. I’m very 'other' directed — I don’t like talking about myself. ... For me, it’s always about, ‘What can I do for you? How can I help you?’ And I was very touched when that woman said, 'How are you doing? How do you get up in the morning?'"
Turns out this is Hillary talking. I was thrown at first by the phrase "I don't like talking about myself," because every time I see footage of her speeches, the most frequently used words in every line are "I" and "me."

I'm tempted to say she's self-delusional. But she might have decided that the most outrageous claims are the most likely to be believed by voters.
