MANCHESTER, N.H. - Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday made her closing argument to female voters in a message that could be reduced to three words.
You. Go. Girl.
Clinton, standing in a lobby of a YWCA, told undecided mothers and their daughters that her agenda for families and children is the most aggressive to help them. She touted her family care and child care tax credits designed to lessen the burden on working women.
"We can do a better job in supporting families than we do right now," Clinton said. "We give a lot of lip service to family values, but we've never really valued families in a way that we can."

Clinton, on the last of a two-day trip to this early voting state, tailored her message and appearances to female voters with whom she enjoys a sizable lead in the contest for the Democratic presidential nomination. She bests rival Barack Obama, 42 percent to 25 percent among women in the latest CNN-WMUR poll conducted by the University of New Hampshire. She leads overall in that poll, 38 percent to 26 percent.
A separate New Hampshire poll, released Friday from USA Today and Gallup, showed Clinton and Obama tied at 32 percent each of Democrats overall. Her outreach to women underscores the tightness of the race in this first-in-the-nation presidential primary state and the support she is trying to cement in case she falters in Iowa's three-way race.
Iowa's presidential caucuses are Jan. 3, followed by New Hampshire's primary on Jan. 8.
With daughter Chelsea and mother Dorothy Rodham in tow, Clinton's four-event schedule highlighted what could be a history-making nomination. As her campaign released a list of 3,500 female supporters, she said there are too many challenges facing working mothers.
"We put so many burdens on families trying to do the right thing, trying to take care of their families," Clinton said.
She cited her time as a young mother in Little Rock, Ark.
"When I was a young lawyer and also a mom, I learned how difficult it was for a lot of the other women who worked in the law firm - the secretaries, the paralegals. At 3 o'clock every day, they'd all be on the phone, whispering to make sure their children were there safely. ... It was just such a time of tension and concern to make sure they got home."
Clinton highlighted her proposals to help working women with young children or who - like Clinton - take care of their parents.
"She's going to hit the ground running," said Barbara Marzelli, a mother whose son benefited from a children's health program Clinton supported. "She has the experience, the strength and the commitment - and above all, a heart - to lead the country."
Clinton also turned back to her book, "It Takes a Village." She said families have to work together to strengthen their relationships.
"It sounds incredibly old fashioned, but having a meal together really makes a difference. It stabilizes your children during the day. It gives them a chance to interact with the family. It is something that has become harder and harder because of work hours and expectations," Clinton said, noting she and her husband made an effort to have at least one meal with Chelsea when she was younger.
"That kind of investment is every parent would like to be able to do, but so many parents can't
Same will go if Obama or Kerry’s boy where to get in.
Actually -- she does
“...Clinton said, noting she and her husband made an effort to have at least one meal with Chelsea...”
Appetizer or dessert??
Well so far I polled 10 women and they all would vote for her.I run a thrift store and have a cross section of people come in.They feel she was strong when Bill cheated on her.The one’s that feel she is in menopause and might make a mistake on National Security would vote for Romney and there you have it.:)I love my little survey’s
Strong?! She was an enabler.I contend that women should not have been allowed to vote.
Maybe if she’d take off the NARAL, Planned Parenthood glasses, she could see how to get ‘families together’.
Families... Now why did Hillary have to piss me off?
I give to you, the Weddington Letter on pgs. 61-64. As you know, Bill’s first action was getting RU486 approved (sick name btw). I wish I knew how to copy and shrink them... this whole report should be posted.

Don’t forget the con vote... they have to thank her (and Chuck), for making Viagra available to inmates in NYC. I’m sure it brought out the best in their natures inside.
Yep, it’s for the women and children. The ones they rape when they get out.
