Hillary, Eli Manning Team Up On Struggling Campaign

NEW YORK (CAP) - In a sign that her campaign is changing tactics and embracing the "underdog" meme, Hillary Clinton is reaching out to another recent underdog for help in turning her political fortunes around: New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning.

"My friend and fellow New Yorker Eli showed that you never give up when a large black man is barreling towards you. You scramble out of the pocket and make something happen," Clinton told a cheering crowd at the El Paso Chuck E. Cheese on Sunland Park Drive. "Well, now it's fourth and long and I'm looking downfield for Texas and Ohio!"

While Eli Manning gained national fame earlier this month by knocking off the heavily-favored Patriots in Super Bowl XLII, analysts are divided whether he will actually help Hillary Clinton on the campaign trail.

"Millions and millions of Americans saw him overcome the underdog mantle and win, and that has to be a big plus for Hillary on one level," said Marty Crankshaw, an imaging consultant for Meso Priddy Associates, a media marketing firm out of Boston.

"On another level, you're sending the New York Giants quarterback into Dallas and Cleveland and Green Bay to stump for a candidate? There are some pretty rabid football fans in those areas, man. I hope he's behind a cage when the beer bottles start flying."

It wouldn't be the first time the Clintons and Giants have snapped a ball for each other. This past year former First Hubby Bill Clinton donated countless hours to the team as a special assistant to the Giants' cheerleading squad, and the Clintons have been notorious the past few seasons as hosts of the weekly "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" tailgate parties held during Giants home game weekends.

Eli Manning's first scheduled appearance with Hillary Clinton will be at a Madison, Wisconsin rally on Monday.

With the White House under fire from numerous directions, press secretary Jay Carney dropped his usual demeanor to tell reporters to "fucking back the fuck off" and that he was "sick of answering dumb-ass questions." He then threatened to have the IRS "personally audit every single one of you fucks." «» The FBI is investigating who wiretapped Sen. Mitch McConnell's office, tapes of which show him slandering one-time opponent Ashley Judd. "I have a right to be devious and unethical in a private setting," he said. "I'm sure I'll say plenty of stupid things publicly during this campaign, just be patient." «» President Obama may spend the foreseeable future sleeping in the Oval Office after returning five percent of his salary in solidarity with furloughed federal workers. Sources say that portion was budgeted for Michelle's clothing allowance and "I'll be damned if I go the next six months dressing like Hillary Clinton." «» Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) now supports gay marriage because his son Will is gay and "if it takes shacking up with another man to get him to move out, so be it."

"But I think if anyone can make fat people cool, it's me." «» Parental advisory groups are up in arms over the naming of the new One Direction sports drink, simply called OD.
