There must be a poll out suggesting that Iowa voters just dont know the real Hillary Clinton. What else would explain the launch on Monday of TheHillaryIKnow.com, a Clinton campaign website featuring video testimonials from regular Americans?
Those regular Americans include her longtime friends and well-known leaders who talk about how their lives have been changed by the presidential hopeful.
The videos also include comments from the New York senators constituents, including a mother with a sick child who says Clinton worked outside of the view of the media when she helped her daughter get the medical attention she needed.
Clintons team says the videos serve as a stark reminder that the issues discussed in the campaign affect real people.
The website offers another reminder: that the Clinton campaign seems to be struggling to overcome the likeability factor. Her likeability, or lack thereof, still represents a big challenge for the former first lady, who is competing with Barack Obama and John Edwards for a win in Iowa on January 3.
Mark Penn, a top Clinton strategist and pollster, told USA Today it was important for people to understand the depth of Hillary. But Observer wonders whether depth is a trait you can sell on a website.

Those who don’t like Hillary also know her.
Planted constituents?
No thanks, I don’t like her.
At all.
“Mark Penn, a top Clinton strategist and pollster, told USA Today it was important for people to understand the depth of Hillary.”
Depth...right. Like that can of soup way in the back of the cupboard.
My life has been changed by her. Really.
I was brought up to respect women, if not revere them.
Here is one I utterly loathe.
Do you have any idea how clueless you sound when you say this ?
Why do you think your comments are ON the video, silly?
And why is your freakin' U.S. Senator involved in getting medical care for YOU?
All the “regular” people they knew are DEAD!
I don’t know Hillary at all.
I mean, I know that her husband blows sax.
But I have no clue as to what instrument she plays.
I'm truly SHOCKED ! ! ! ! ! !
She’s the boss’s wife who throws her weight around. She’s the women who made it by getting married... it’s why professional women don’t back her, and men don’t back her, and anyone who’s dealt with the “boss’s wife” type, doesn’t trust her...
Any man who would vote for Hillary is either gay or p-whipped.
I was just reading a different thread on the "Softer Side of Hillary." If you go to the main article and read the comments that follow, a poster pushed this same story as a personal anecdote. Seems like a plant to me. Just more of Hillary manipulating the media.

Hillary Clinton is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
Well it’s getting deeper. Can’t wait for the Hillary raised my dead child from the grave and when we ran out of wine at my wedding Hillary came through stories.
One sick puppy, she doth try to pull the wool over the regular people.

Mark Penn then remarked,”And I know everyone will forgive Obama for selling cocaine to kindergardners, and pimping Nuns out as prostitutes.”

Isn’t that the sign they used in The Sting to single the con is on?
6.December 17th, 2007 12:46 pm There are many quiet stories about Hillary. For one, she spoke at a huge affair at one point. In the audience was a woman with a child newly diagnosed with a rare and difficult, bad disease. She asked a staffer if Hillary might help. Late that night, at the end of a very long day, Hillary spent one-half hour with this woman, alone in her car, listening to her story. The next day the woman got a call from a doctor in Baltimore saying he would see the child a visit arranged by Hillary Clinton. This is just ONE story. If readers want to know more, they should read her book and books about her and ask questions of her campaign people. Thank you for listening. This story is just one more reason why I support Hillary Clinton. Posted by jeannie reed
Note to self: Google Jeannie Reed. Sounds like a talking point to me.
Clinton worked ... the view of the media when she helped her daughter get the medical attention she needed.
"Leave Hillary Alone! She's a HUMAN BEING... damn it!!! She has feelings.... Whahahaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!"
I’m her age, but here she looks like she is old enough to be my Mother.
The Hillary I know?.....Broom rider.
“She’s a brilliant woman, a hard worker, a good wife and great mother, an asset
to us all and a wonderful leader—and she has photocopies of my FBI file.”
I think that’s the viper strike sign. Hsssssss!
Take it to the bank: Polling indicated that Iowa dumbcrat’s see the beast for what she is and they are trying to present the soft side of hillary. That my friends is like trying to turn a turd into a “Baby Ruth” candy bar.
Jeanie Reed.
Seems she is the SPECIAL SERVICES person for a CLINTON SCHOOL OF PUBLIC SERVICE, and SMEA.

“I was brought up to respect women, if not revere them.”
Aw, Gorza, that’s so sweet! :o)
That site is a Riot, Oh how the mighty fall,LOL!
Jeanie Reed.
Executive Director for SMEA of Arkansas.
I guess she couldn’t afford the medical care for her daughter.
But she remembered her name.
She got a video crew there for this interview.
But she's not being "used", oh no, no, no!
is Jeannie Reed the same as Jeanie Reed?
Or is it just a coincidence that there is a Jeanie Reed as Executive Director of an Arkansas SCHOOL of PUBLIC SERVICE?
Is Juanita Broaddrick a regular American? I'd love to have her testimonial on Hillary's website. How about Billy Dale? Maybe Jim McDougal could add some insights. (Ooops, sorry, he's dead.) I know--Vince Foster--c'mon down!
Probably not related, but I was shopping at Wal Mart this weekend and noticed something interesting. They had Christmas cards available with political caricatures on them. The Hillary card had her heinous lying in bed smiling with a little White House dream bubble over her head. The inside of the card said, Im dreaming of a White House Christmas. The George Bush card had the big eared, big nosed caricature of GWB on it, dressed as a shepherd, and the caption, Why dont I ever get to be a wise man?
Nothing partisan about that.
How about a page with the reflections of Arkansas state troopers, Secret Service agents, and FBI agents who worked in close proximity to her? Then we’d have a more complete picture of the ‘real’ Hilde.
Or scared to talk!!
Contrast a site like this with one of people that know her but don’t like her/trust her/fear her. It should be massive and not too hard to compile.
They make better tootsie rolls, IMHO (smile).
I still haven’t figured out if this is a boy,a girl, or a transgender...
Ron Brown and the teenagers at Mena who were mysteriously killed are waiting in line...
