Hillary To Push Button For Times Square New Year’s Ball Drop

Annual Celebration Will Mark Second Time This Year Clinton Dropped the Ball

New York’s Mayor Bloomberg could barely conceal a grin as he announced that Hillary Clinton and her husband had been chosen to be in charge of pushing the ceremonial button to start the New Year’s Eve ball drop in Times Square.

“These two have been trying to push people’s buttons for years,” said Bloomberg. “So, we figured, ‘Who better to push the second-biggest button in the country?’”

The mayor went on to say, “This will mark three times in a row Hillary’s dropped the ball, if you include her shot at health care during her husband’s first term.”

A spokesman for every other Democrat noted there was some very pleasing irony in the fact that while the Obama’s would be watching from in front of a fire in the Blair House as the year changed, the Clintons would be left out in the cold in New York.

In other news, after being kicked in the groin by his wife every day since August, John Edwards is expected to spend the New Year’s hoping for his balls to drop.
