Clintons To Form Third Party

NEW YORK...Hillary and Bill Clinton announced today that they are forming a new political party to continue her fight for the presidency. Seeking to draw comparisons with Theodore Roosevelt's 'Bull Moose', the new party will be called 'Surly Eris' for the Greek Goddess of discord and strife. According to the press release, the party will "cater to the perceived slights and accumulated frustrations harbored by women of a certain age and Lanny Davis."

Speculation that Clinton would be placed on the Democratic ticket ended earlier in the day when representatives for Barack Obama refused her demand that he do all his campaigning in an open top limousine. Said a visibly indignant Harold Ickes, "Would we have liked Obama to be capable of enjoying pleasant weather? You bet your ass."

Meanwhile, longtime Clinton friend and bagman Terry McAuliffe stressed that the new party would be open to "anyone with resentments and a credit card" including "honest, hard working Americans who just happen not to like blacks."

When pressed by reporters on how Senator Clinton had managed to squander every institutional advantage in her descent from inevitability to runner-up, spokesman Howard Wolfson decried "this endless media fascination with the factual" adding "this isn't about who won what how, this is about something far more important, the future of the Clintons".

You nailed it. While done in a comedic manner, that very behavior has been evident time and time again throughout their circus performance.

Thank you for reducing the Clinton circus to the joke that it has become!

Funny good satire? Or the reason she has not conceded. SNL

Ya' know, you could give some one with a weak heart a heart attack with that headline alone?

It nearly triggered a panic attack for me.

How rude of me, perhaps I should join their new party, for not mentioning how much I enjoyed your excellent article.

Great!!!!!!! Roaring with laughter here. 'Loving it, just sent it to my 'group' titled 'Dems'. It does remind me of the fear that we are living with. On a more cheerful note MLK had a dream and we are living it! WAHOO!
