DALLAS, Texas (CNN) – Sen. Hillary Clinton, the first serious female contender for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination, told supporters that she would clean house when she arrived at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in January 2009.

“Now, you know, as President Bush is leavin’ and comin’ home, waiting in that Oval Office are gonna be a lot of problems,” Clinton told the crowd. “So, the next president is gonna have to get in there and clean house,” she added.

“Now, I think we need somebody whose got some experience cleaning house to go into the White House,” she said to cheers. “So, I might ask you to grab your brooms and your mops, your vacuum cleaners and come on up and help me out,” Clinton said to an audience that included men but was majority female.

If she needs help, we hear that Senator Robert Byrd has generously offered to regularly change the "sheets" in the Lincoln Bedroom...

I remember the Clinton Administration’s idea of leaving the White House nice and clean for Dubya.

No, thanks.

She must have had the old Oval Office carpet cleaned from all of Bill and Monica’s stains.

According to the clinton tradtion, I certainly hope the Bush team removes the letters B, I, T, C, H from the White House computers.

She’s going to get rid of all those boxes of Law Firm records that lay around unopened and unnoticed for years.

Hasn’t she been using this “clean house” line for about two years?

The last time I heard her use it, I think she was addressing a gathering of SEIU 1199 chambermaids. It was a real hit with them, too.

Hillary gave this same speech to a union audience in Nevada recently. An audience of cleaning service folks.

She’s running out of new things to say.

Nevermind the fact that her hubby left semen stains all over the President’s office...

That was "clean out" the house ~ not "clean house".

What's funny Obamasama's old lady doesn't know how to clean house either, and probably can't cook. She's been an "executive" and has a Princeton degree ~ you maybe hadn't heard that before.

Fur Shur, her momma didn't let her go into the kitchen.

These people are helpless without their servant class you know.
