Clinton's rejoinder: Jobs, baby, jobs Updated at 8:01 AM
Source: Yahoo News via AP

PHILADELPHIA - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton offered a Democratic rejoinder to the Republican chant of "drill, baby, drill." Said the one-time presidential candidate: "Jobs, baby, jobs."

Campaigning for her once bitter rival Barack Obama in Pennsylvania, the New York senator told about 1,500 people at an historic farm in suburban Horsham, that her husband's administration produced a balanced budget and a surplus.

"Now, eight short years later, we've had to add a digit to the debt clock," she said, referring to the digital sign in New York City that tracks the national debt.

Clinton is trying to use her popularity in places like northeast Philadelphia and the city's suburbs to help Obama beat Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain in this battleground state. She did well in both areas in Pennsylvania's Democratic primary six months ago, when she beat the Illinois senator by 10 percentage points.

5. Too bad Obama didn't come up with it
coming from Clinton, whose husband's administration brought labor and farmers NAFTA and GATT, well, it rings a little empty.

9. Actually, I think it's a coordinated message --
Obama's speech this morning included a line something like: ". . . it's a plan that's easy to spell: J-O-B-S"
