The economy needs help and fast, Hillary Rodham Clinton declared Monday, claiming the experience for the job and saying the nation can't afford to break in a newcomer.

In speech that kicked off a two day campaign swing through Iowa, the New York senator painted a bleak picture of a U.S. economy battered by home foreclosures, rising oil prices and lack of good jobs for middle class workers.

The former first lady compared the situation to 1992, when her husband ran against the first President Bush.

"There seems to be a pattern here. It takes a Clinton to clean up after a Bush," she said to applause.

If you'e cleaning up after a Bush be sure to use lots and lots of anti-bacterial cleaning fluid and rubber gloves. Yuck!

Which Bush and which Clinton? Iran Contra = Bush. Savings & Loan crisis = Bush. Do you know what I Mean = Bush/Clinton. Gulf War I = Bush. Failed healthcare reform = Clinton. 12 years of sanctions on Iraq = Bush/Clinton. Nafta = Clinton. Gatt = Clinton. Telecommunications Act of 96 = Clinton. Impeachment for lying = Clinton. 9/11 = Clinton/Bush (?). Patriot Act = Bush/Clinton. Patriot Act II = Bush/Clinton. Iraq War II = Bush/Clinton. Military Commissions Act = Bush/Clinton. Bankruptcy Bill = Bush/Clinton.

Can we please have a new president that's not related to either the Bush or Clinton corporate dynasty? How can anyone call what these 2 families have left behind to the American public a simple mess?

The only cleaning Hillary will do if elected is to sweep all of her, her serial adulterer husband, and Georgie 1 & 2's messes into the White House closet and lock the door on them for 40 years (just like her records from the White House when they were in before).

As the campaign goes on, it becomes clearer that the Clintons are part of a dark past.

Hopefully, the people of Iowa can see that.

Obama pulls ahead in latest Iowa Poll that came out after last week's debate performance. He is even considered "more trustworthy" than Clinton. Here is the link:

So it takes an Obama to clean up the Bush mess, not a Clinton!

By that logic we are doomed. And for that matter, Hillary ain't the cleaning-up type, not this mess.

Concerns about the banking sector dominated the session. Goldman Sachs Group Inc.'s downgrade of large banks, and its estimate that Citigroup Inc. would have to write down $15 billion over the next two quarters due to its exposure to risky debt, unnerved Wall Street.

Other sectors suffered big hits during the session, including homebuilders and airlines.

Just a market correction as the repugs would say.

Just say worthless dollar and hello inflation.

REASON:

1) corporate america (et. al.) hates clinton and helps to squeeze bush into office.

2) an army of republican operates decend on corporate america and give the following threat: if you have CEO's and other top corporate officers who are democrats, replace them republicans or get audited and regulated.

3) the bush/cheney regigm make the corporateions more money in the past seven years than in history bankrupting america and turning the world against us all at once.

4) corporate america looks to clinton to clean up the mess?

riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

Clinton is seriously suggesting her "economic policies" would fix our country's current trends? This country must be in a sore spot indeed if a candidate thinks more spending is going to solve our deficit problem... I'm embarrassed to breath the same air as this woman...

What is Clinton 44 saying?

Is she coming out of the closet?

We know Clinton 42 cleaned up after a few bushes in the oval office.

"The only difference I ever found between the Democratic leadership and the Republican leadership is that one of them is skinning you from the ankle up and the other, from the ear down."

--Huey Long

I'm not going to vote because that'll only encourage them. Instead, I'll write in my own name and promise to make Dean Martin head of the Liquor Cabinet.

"Snap! Hillary Says "It Takes A Clinton To Clean Up After A Bush""

Snap! It takes a really good dry cleaner to clean up after a Clinton makes his mark on a blue dress, and a really good carpet cleaner wouldn't hurt either.

Seeing that Hillary Clintoon gave Baby Bush the go ahead to invade Iraq, I'd never vote for her.

It doesn't take a Clinton to clean up this mess. It takes a nation that uses clear-eyed thinking and desires real change.

Stop pretending that our leaders have to be white, Christian, wealthy, and connected to unscrupulous characters.

Realize that 9/11 was all about restarting the heroin trade that the Taliban had done a good job of cleaning up! Do not allow our government or elements of it to carry out shadow operations that must be funded by the heroin or cocaine trades.

Be a force for peaceful transformation. Elect men and women who promise to build an army of peaceful warriors, not an army to fight the war on terror. The WOT is a figment of the Project for the New American Century and Bush and Cheney's imaginations in order to make their rich weapons industry and security industry friends and supporters even more wealthy.
