You can't blame Twilight for anything, it's just not original enough.
It's just reaping the foul results of 30 years of dandified Anne Rice styled tortured vampires and mixing it with the vampires and werewolves should fight! trend. Throw in "vapire politics" that's in everything, and you have a work so derivative it's not even worthy of blame.
