The Clintons Roll Out New Strategy

.
Make 'em Think We're Losing--Then Spring the Trap!
.
In a scene from Monty Python's Holy Grail, The Clintons, LLC (TM), faced yet another defeat in yesterday's primaries with the courage of the legless and armless Black Knight: “I’m tested. I’m ready. Let’s make it happen!” Hillary shouted in support of her husband's quest for the nomination. “We are going to sweep across Texas," she warned Democrats, "...bringing our message about what we need..."*
.
The Clintons, LLC (TM), juggernaut only appears to be stalled after a string of inconvenient losses to their archrival, Barrage Obama, who was reported to be campaigning in his native state, Hawaii, while Hillary and Bill passed the campaign hat for gas money to refuel their Time For Spare Change campaign bus before heading to Texas. Donations were sluggish to the point that Hillary was about to once again offer to lend their campaign another $5 million, on "very attractive terms," a campaign staffer leaked to BPNN. "We're just waiting for the credit report to come back," he added. "Seems we can't loan large amounts of unsecured cash to subprime candidates anymore."
.
The loan, however, proved unnecesary and cash flowed in as co-candidate Once-and-Future President Bill Clinton, led the Clintons For Spare Change cheerleaders in the campaign's new cheer:
"We're tested.
We're ready.
Let's make it...
Hap-pen!"
Mr. Clinton seemed ready, indeed, to make it happen until co-candidate, Hillary, forced him back on the bus, which immediately left for El Paso.
