Another Friday Night Lights alum is speaking out against Mitt Romney and his alleged plagiarism using the phrase "Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can't Lose." This time it's former star Connie Britton, who slammed the GOP presidential candidate in an op-ed published yesterday in USA Today. In it, Britton criticizes Romney, calling him wrong for lifting the phrase from FNL.

Britton goes on to explain why Romney being elected president would be bad news for the future of women in this country, and urges female votes to "take "Clear Eyes, Full Hearts" back" and use it as a "motivator for progress, power, and greatness."

Earlier this month, FNL creator Peter Berg sent a letter to the Romney requesting that he stop using the phrase, and just last week, the Romney campaign released bracelets with the phrase embossed on them.
