"Team Rodeo" video blamed for Senator Clinton's poor showing in Potomac Primaries

Greensboro, NC

After running in front for the several months leading up to the Potomac Primaries, Senator Hillary Clinton has fallen behind Senator Barack Obama in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination after being swept in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia.

A spokeswoman for the Clinton campaign blamed the senator's poor finish on a video that was posted just days before the mid-Atlantic primaries. The video, produced by Penchant Lama, Inc. depicts Hillary as a pony being ridden by various men in what is described by the video's star Penchant Lama as a "team rodeo." Although Penchant insists Hillary is "no pony," her dispirited rocking during the rodeo conveys a lack of strength and purpose, an image not lost on voters.

"Obviously it was damaging," said former President Bill Clinton of the video, which is gaining popularity on sites such as YouTube and Metacafe. "That's not the Hillary I've experienced. I wish Penchant had invited me to his rodeo."

In an exclusive interview with CNN, Penchant claimed he did invite the former President, but that Clinton declined when he learned the name of the "bull" he would be riding.

"Bill's a sweet boy," Penchant said, "but he wanted a bull named Monica."

Bob Stout, a farmer from Staunton, VA, said: "I've seen dead rats in my barn move faster than Hillary." After seeing the video he decided to vote for Obama.

Penchant argued that he did try an assortment of "teams" on Hillary, but none could elicit the dynamic bucking he expected.

Hillary now will have to shake her image as a tepid pony as she looks toward key primaries in Texas and Ohio

"It's very disappointing," she said. "I think my ankles are too swollen to run from behind."

Ankles? What Hillary needs now is a large scooper to pick up the giant poops being dropped by the stallion now running ahead of her.
