...the Hillary campaign has created another "It's 3 AM and the phone is ringing" 30 second ad. This one attacks McCain for not supporting bailing out foreclosures, and touts Hillary's "plan" to alleviate the problem and create jobs.

This "3 am" gimmick is really tiresome.  Being able to pick up a ringing phone at an unsociable hour is not exactly a qualification for the Presidency.

Plus, who is calling at 3am about the housing market?  France?

This was a very dumb commercial.

I do like how both Obama and now McCain have used Killary's commercial as a rebuttal though.  Good line from the McCain ad:  "Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama just said they'd solve the problem by raising your taxes. More money out of your pocket."

Added on with Killary's comment about us not being able to afford all the plans she has, this just weakens her case even more.

"Madame President!  Urgent call for you on Line 1!!  It's Mr Arnie Brookes from Lexington - he and his wife have been up all night and have just concluded that they're going to default on a mortgage repayment.  He requires your urgent attention.  Madame President?!"

I came to the conclusion long ago that Youtube comments are arguably the second worst thing on the Internet.

I doubt Hillary would be bothered to pick up a 3AM call about the Economy. Then again, who would?

I just saw this and it really seemed like a joke.

3 AM phone call about...the housing crisis. Right.

HILLARY SAVE US!

There is very little in this world that would make me more happy than Hillary in the WHITE HOSE! You go, HIL! And when I say "You go" I don't mean "You Go" like "You go away!" because I would never want Hillary to go away! When I have an economic problem at three AM in the Morning I will call HILLARY CLINTON!

Hillary you are my idol. You are why I get up in the morning!

Hillary, if you get the FL delegates, and Michigan I know that you will have enough to win! And go PA! Everyone talk to people and help her!!!

wooohooo! GO HILLARY

Hillary we r behind u all the way to the White House. Hillary 08!

KEEP MOVING FORWARD

I LOVE YOU HILLARY!!!
Take it to the White House!!!
we NEED you!!!!

Hillary is the only candidate (Democrat or Republican) to display readiness to be Commander-in-Chief of the economy on Day One.

Good ad. I trust Hillary on the economy more than anyone else.

Hillary/Edward 08!

Vote for HIllary or we are going to be in bigger trouble than we already are.

i am Very prOud of your Tenacious Efforts gO hillary. we will Bring you bAck to the white house My best wishes to you And your candidacy.

I trust Hillary to answer the call at 3am or 3pm or whenever. I know she will be on top of her game. She is not just in this election to "win" but to effectively do the job that is needed so desperately. My family, friends, colleagues at work, and most of my neighbors love Hillary despite all the media bias and bashing she has been subjected to. The people and not the media will choose the next president. Thank you Hillary for all you are doing to fight for our nation. Hillary08

yeah hillary give power to the women

This gave me "chills". Excellent! I really trust Hillary to do the right thing. Experience is so important.

She would do a fabulous job as president - she is a tuff lady, whether you 'like' her or not she would sink her teeth in and fight for all of us. Too bad the media and others just keep tearing her down on issues of absolutely no consequence. I'm not a gender warrior, but all things being similar - come on women - get out there and support someone who will show that a female can indeed break the ultimate glass ceiling.

Nice Hillary!! Courage to do the 3 am add again! That's my girl! We are right behind you Hillary and were going to win.

yeah hilary! you answer that phone call!!!!

W00T Let's go Hillary! C'mon! You can pull this off! I know things are looking down but you CAN... you WILL pull this off!

GO HILLARY. I TOTALLY SUPPORT YOU!

Hillary I hope u win big in PA!! I kno ill be voting for you!

Thats a GREAT SPOT and I hope ppl will listen and know that Hillary is the only one for the job and if anyone else is elected Prez then we are doomed. Clinton & Obama 2008

GO HILARY!
U RULE!!!

cmon hillary lets make this race interestinG and win
Ohio

Way to go Hill, You ROCK!

Hillary...Lead The Way!

I love this ad. I wish you all the best wishes, Mme. the President. God bless you.

Go Hillary!!! I am voting for you. I'm a latino male who knows a great woman when he sees her.

We need HILLARY!!

I'm still LOLing.

If this thread has taught me anything, it is that obbviously Hillary has the best bipartisan appeal.  She will unite both Republicans and Democrats


to vote against her.


Also, all comments Youtube vids put up by the Clinton website are screened so that only positive ones are shown.
