When Life Gives Hillary Clinton Lemons, She Makes A Bastardized, Kind Of Awkward Guacamole
14 January 2008, 1:45 PM. By Alex Alvarez
Senator Hillary Clinton is pulling out all the stops in an effort to garner fresh and flavorful Latino votes on the West Coast:
Clinton and her busload of traveling press moved from there to the popular local Mexican restaurant Lindo Michoacan, where a “roundtable” that was actually square passed a microphone around to tell her people’s concerns about the mortgage crisis and foreclosures. She took notes and munched on tortilla chips.
Totes jealous! Everything tastes better with tortilla chips. Even the bitter taste of an analogy gone slightly awry:
Summing it up at the end, Clinton said, “We’ve only talked to a few people, but each of them talk about some part of the problem we are confronting. This is a problem that is only going to get worse if we don’t address it.”
Clinton said unscrupulous lending leads to bad mortgages, which lead to foreclosures, which lead to people with nowhere to go and vacant neighborhoods that can go rapidly downhill.
“We treat these problems as if one is guacamole and one is chips, when … they both go together,” she said.
Exactly! Wait. What?

i smell a gawkeresque ‘Mad Libs’ in this.
“We treat these problems as if one is Cheech and one is Chong.’
And when she goes to the midwest, I hope she uses, “One is tuna and one is casserole.”
In Texas, “Like one is beer and the other is a full tank of gas.”
in california, ‘indian casino’ and ‘more slot machines’ works well right about now.
gaaahhhhhh.
“Like one is our bed and the other is Bill and I in it.”
