Clinton Campaign Feels Impact of Writers’ Strike

Newton, IOWA (AP) Staffers working for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign are concerned that the recent writers’ strike may affect their ability to plant softball questions among sympathetic audience members.

“That’s easy! My name is Hillary, I seek the presidency, and my favorite color is blue.”

“It’s hard enough making a soulless demon-woman like Hillary appear likeable even under ideal conditions,” said Mark Daley, Clinton’s Iowa Communications Director. “Easy questions like ‘what will you do to stop global warming?’ give her a chance to dig out from under her natural unlikability.”
For months, Clinton has relied on the subtle touch of professional writers for the questions that made her appear less like an unnatural baby-eating monster, but with this resource no longer available, she’s recently placed her fate in less secure hands.
“We’ve started using Kos Diarists,” said Daley. “They’re not as good, but they’re willing to work for the prestige and the occasional Krispy Kreme. Unfortunately, their output is a little more… obvious. We’re having to use things like ‘I don’t pay my fair share of taxes. How will you correct this injustice?’ and ‘With your difficult and busy campaign schedule, how do you find time to keep your cleavage so fresh and perky?’. Still, you have to campaign with the planted questions you have, not the planted questions you might want or wish to have at a later time.”
Markos Moulitsas Zúniga, founder of the Daily Kos, objected to Daley’s disparaging evaluation. “My website represents mainstream America’s mainstreamest thoughts. If we decide to ask Hillary “Why are you so great and how may we best worship you?’, then that’s obviously a question that America wants answered.”

  3. When asked about the incident, the Clinton campaign was at a loss for comment. However, an average citizen who just happened to be standing nearby asked Senator Clinton if she thought it was fair that life’s lottery had not granted him free health insurance, to which Ms. Clinton quickly offered a spontaneous, thoughtful and insightful answer in commanding fashion.
