Hillary Clinton runs ad in Texas questioning Obama's ability to lead America in time of crisis.
The ad shows children sleeping in their beds with a phone ringing in the background. A voice over says: "It is 3 A.M. the White House phone is ringing. The nation is under attack. Who do you want answering the phone when the country is under attack?"
The ad mentions Hillary's experience in the White House during a time of war. It also implies the lack of experience Obama possesses.
