Clinton ad: 'She's worked the night shift, too.'
CNN ^ | February 19, 2008 | Rebecca Sinderbrand and Jessica Yellin

(CNN) – Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is reaching out to blue-collar voters with a new ad that says she can empathize with the travails of the night shift.

“You pour coffee, fix hair, you work the night shift at the local hospital,” says the announcer in the 30-second spot, ‘Night Shift,’ over footage of workers on the job.

“You're often overworked, underpaid, and sometimes overlooked. But not by everyone. One candidate has put forth an American family agenda to make things easier for everyone who works so hard. ….”

The ad ends with a photo of Clinton working at her desk at night. “She understands. She's worked the night shift, too.”

Clinton’s campaign has noted a strong showing in Ohio’s March 4 primary is critical to her bid for the Democratic presidential nomination.

So has Clinton worked the night shift? Spokesman Howard Wolfson said Tuesday that "the reference is to her working late at night at her desk."

“I think this one sounds too pandering”.

Geez, all you have to do is to check out her billing records at the Rose Law Firm ... oh, but wait, they're missing!

"Ain't no hooker who is that ugly." That's why she had to give up and become a lawyer.

“Maybe as an ugly hooker.”

“Wasn’t all of the Foster work done at night?”

Vince Foster was the only stiff Hillary buried on her night shift.

Shift Work
(Her Royal Heinous, PIAPS I, feat. Bubba)

Shift work, hard work, tired intern
Blue-stained dress and an unlit cigar
Cuban made

Bill's hot, sweat drops, 'round the clock
Door never unlocks
Noise never stops
Not all day
Work seven to three
Three to eleven
Eleven to seven

Shift work, tough work for the ex-President jerk
Two 'nads that hurt, going insane
He's mad at some lad
Drove off and didn't pay for their meal and it won't be the last
'round the clock pain
Work seven to three
Three to eleven
Eleven to seven

Talking about a bunch of shift work
A big ol' pile of shift work
Work seven to three
Three to eleven
Eleven to seven

Well I work, shift work,
Ten years man, I hated that work
I made a break with the cattle futures money I made
It took me to the White House to have a white wine spritzer by the edge of D.C.
And this 'round a clock place
I drank my money away
We partied
Work seven to three
Three to eleven
Eleven to seven

Talking about a bunch of shift work
A big ol' pile of shift work
Work seven to three
Three to eleven
Eleven to seven

I’d hazard a guess that Ms Clinton got paid a bit more than your average night shift worker.

LOL!! Unbelievable!! Hillary actually working is joke enough.
I’m with you; her staff should tell her the commercial has to pass the smell test. This one most certainly wouldn’t...but then, neither would she for that matter.

Can you say BACKFIRE? Her campaign is THE worst run in HISTORY.

Hillary's s trying to top Giuliani's disastrous campaign.

Rudy was "saving" himself" for later, too---he campaigned in must-win Fla 61 days straight and finished a distant third. The more Giualini campaigned, the more voters were repulsed by him.

That controlled way Hillary speaks indicates a deep anger hiding inside. The way she greets voters with that deer in the headlights look must be off-putting in person.

Although Hill can't top Giuliani in the delegate count---he spent $60 million and got only one delegate.

Sure she burned the midnight oil. Probably worked her way through Moscow State U. as a hooker. Of course, those were drunk Soviet sailors home from long months at sea. Still reeking of radiation leakage.

I love this “Woman Of The People” angle - Hill is a Wellesley darling, after all. She doesn’t even bury her own bodies.
