"Ringing"
Hillary Clinton repurposes the now-famous 3 a.m. ad for PA voters. The latest iteration shows the same dark house and sleeping children, but, this time, the perceived enemies are not those mean and nasty, unnamed, faraway people who want to harm Americans. "This time the crisis is economic," a male narrator says. "Home foreclosures mounting. Markets teetering."
The spot targets John McCain for saying the government shouldn't intervene in the housing crisis. "He'd let the phone keep ringing," the narrator adds.
HAHA this is so stupid...market activity does not happen at 3:00 AM get over yourself woman.
Clearly the Clinton campaign is experiencing more financial troubles than we thought if they're going to start reusing the stock footage from the original "3 a.m." spot for whatever issue's in the news.
"Commander-in-chief of the economy"? What, is she going to blow up subprime lenders?
Here's a good question. If individuals have their mortgages bailed out by the government, wouldn't the imputation of the difference between what they owed contractually and what they will end up paying minus the bailout be taxable income? The "stimulus payments" were passed to be not taxable, however each state had to pass similar legislation exempting it. Will this "aid" be similarly exempted, or will these people who are bailed out get a big surprise next April?
