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.

This is rich...considering the WH staff had to use this while cleaning the Oval Office after your husband, the rapist, left.

I’m confused! I was told that one of “W’s” biggest mistakes was not cleaning out the embedded Lefties the Clinton’s left behind. If “W” didn’t clean them out, then I read this as Hillary must be promising to it.

Is she sayin' leavin" and comin' cuz she thinks it would play good in Texas?

Answer: Mostly because she's an out and out phony. The accent changes according to her audience.

"Let’s see ... will she fire the US Attorneys?"

That, and fire the Travel Office staff, plus the chef.

I thought they “cleaned house” when they left a few years ago?

Last time they "cleaned" WH from furniture, this time they are going to strip it from everything including toilet paper (if they get in).

Grab brooms, mops, vacuum cleaner, says Hillary.

Do it yourself, Hillary. Maybe it will keep you too busy to spread your socialist propaganda.
