DES MOINES, Iowa — I have a story today about Sen. Hillary Clinton's pitch to female voters.
Among her most popular stump lines is a reminder about the historic nature of her candidacy: Clinton often tells voters that Iowans in their 90s, born before women's suffrage, turn out to see her speak and that parents tell their daughters that she proves you can be "anything you want to be."
Here's Clinton in her own words in a recent Boston Globe op-ed.
The campaign also directly pitches women to help out, especially in Iowa. They have invited women to the Virginia headquarters to write postcards to women voters in Iowa, and they are sending women to Moms for Hillary, where they can win prizes for helping the campaign.
It's snowing in Iowa this morning, but so far campaign events are going on as planned.
To keep you occupied before my next weather report, here's a story my colleague Jim McElhatton wrote for our front page today about the outside groups working for and against Clinton in Iowa.
