January 22, 2007, 4:32 PM Katie On Hillary Posted by Katie Couric| Comments11 (CBS) Hillary Clinton says a friend of hers describes her as the most famous woman that people dont know. Well, America will get to know her, one way or another, in the next few months, as one of the most anticipated Presidential campaigns in recent history rolls out across the country. As part of that roll-out, Senator Clinton came to our New York studio this afternoon for an interview, two days after launching her campaign on her Web site. She looked polished and poised and prepared. She explained why she doesnt support President Bushs surge in troops for Iraq. And she talked a bit about her vision for the country, and repeated the phrase she used in her websites announcement Saturday, that she believed America needs a leader who will take steps that are bold and practical. (You can catch more of the interview on tonights Evening News.) Of course, it remains to be seen what specific bold and practical plans and policies shell be outlining and whether any of that will resonate with the rest of the country. One thing is certain: with the remarkable lineup of talent from both parties jockeying for position, political junkies will have a field day watching the election season unfold. This promises to be an extraordinary -- and long -- campaign. There are 652 days until Election Day. Fasten your seatbelts!

Interesting. I wonder how she'll position herself on the surge these days, now that even the press can't negatively spin the good news it's brought lately.
