Hey Matt.
One thing that you might want to try is this.
First, get VO to where the text is you want to copy
Then, press VO shift C to copy the last phrase to the clipboard.
Finally, go to text edit or where ever and paste
Just keep doing that over and over until you have all that you want. It's kind 
of annoying way to do it but...
One thing to keep in mind is that when VO reads text in safari, it's reading 
paragraph by paragraph.
HTH.
