How desperate is Hillary Clinton to demonstrate that her campaign isn’t Dead (Wo)man Walking? Desperate enough to bus in people from Massachusetts, says the Washington Times:
Reporters who walked into this Nashua high school today were immediately struck by the crowd "” there are visibly more people here for Sen. Hillary Clinton than were here for Sen. Barack Obama yesterday in the same location.
The Clinton crowd was loud and boisterous and their foot-stomping was thunderous.
Many of them were also from Massachusetts.
Clinton gave a few minute speech about how she sees the race for 2008 shaping up, then started taking questions. As she did, I noticed dozens of people start streaming out via the back doors.
Of the 7 people I interviewed, three said they had taken advantage of the short drive to come see both Clinton and Obama in the area in advance of the Feb. 5 Massachusetts primary.
But the others said they were Clinton volunteers who came up to canvass on her behalf this weekend.
Serap Sankoh, a biostatistician from Acton, Mass., said she had been actively recruited to attend and wave signs wildly by the Clinton campaign. “I got the telephone calls not last night but the night before and I’m a die-hard supporter, so I made the drive,” she said.
Another reporter noticed a charter bus parked outside "” and it wasn’t part of our traveling motorcade.
Hillary is a Clinton. Clinton lie, cheat, and steal. ’nuff said.
