Secondly, I think it's important to point out that about 3 percent of my donations come from people in the finance and investment world. You can go to opensecrets.org and check that. I have more donations from students and teachers than I do from people associated with Wall Street. 3rd Democratic debate transcript, annotated: Who said what and what it meant - The Washington Post

The three percent’s implication is that since the finance and investment world contributes a sliver to her campaign, they don’t have considerable sway over her. “Students and teachers” attaches pathos to this statement, although Clinton doesn’t specify how much more the education bloc contributes than the finance one.

Note that this excludes Super PACs–which is why Sanders mentions that he has none.

Also, 3% points to how many contributions, and not how much money those contributions are worth. She may get more contributions from teachers, but that money is nowhere near as big as the money she gets from financial institutions.

CLINTON: Number one, there are currently two hedge fund billionaires running ads against me here in New Hampshire. They started in Iowa. Now, you'd have to ask yourself, why are they running ads against me? And the answer is: Because they know I will go right after them, that I will not let their agenda be Americ... 3rd Democratic debate transcript, annotated: Who said what and what it meant - The Washington Post

Since Clinton couldn’t evade the Wall Street talk with her small business rhetoric, she went all-out at rebuking O'Malley.

“If Wall Street indeed supports me, why are two of its figures attacking me?”

It’s up to her to demonstrate that the conservative electorate, and corporate America, should also love Hillary Clinton.

SANDERS: First of all, we recognize that we have a rigged economy, as you've indicated.

Sanders spoke on the rigged economy with ABC before, where he stated that he’d create a “new…type of Democratic Party"L

to involve millions of people, George, who have given up on the political process, working class people and young people who today say you know what, the economy is rigged, nothing I can do about it. The campaign finance system is corrupt, big money controls what’s going on.

Those are all really positive developments. But out-of-pocket costs have gone up too much and prescription drug costs have gone through the roof. And so what I have proposed, number one, is a $5,000 tax credit to help people who have very large out-of-pocket costs be able to afford those. 3rd Democratic debate transcript, annotated: Who said what and what it meant - The Washington Post

RADDATZ: But you did say those were glitches.

CLINTON: Yes.

RADDATZ: Just glitches?

CLINTON: Well, they're glitches because...

RADDATZ: Twenty-seven percent in the last five years, deductibles up 67 percent?

CLINTON: It is. Because part of this is the startup challenges that this system is facing. We have fought, as Democrats, for decades to get a health care plan. I know. I've got the scars to show from the effort back in the early '90s. 3rd Democratic debate transcript, annotated: Who said what and what it meant - The Washington Post

Raddatz and Clinton act off a more layperson connotation of “glitches”, with Merriam-Webster preferred definition that a glitch is a “minor problem”.

Clearly, not of them have dealt with a game-breaking bug. :3

Considering Star War’s dominance of the current pop-culture scene, it’s only natural for a politican to capitalize on the meme potential.

My prediction is that /r/starwars will make a thread on Clinton’s sendoff.

EDIT: Speaking of Reddit, this thread points out that Clinton got the debate’s first and last words. That puts her at a favorable position over the other two candidates, which doesn’t look good neutrality-wise.

Off-topic Aside: The phrase “mistakes are made” is the classic use of political passive voice. It’s a sneaky blame deflector, since it avoids mentioning who made the mistakes.
