Clinton urges Iowa voters to caucus on wrong day Sun Dec 23, 2007 9:05pm EST

DES MOINES (Reuters) - Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton may have shot herself in the foot trying to get Iowa voters to pledge support to her -- she is encouraging them to go caucus on January 14, 11 days too late.

At a rally featuring her husband, former U.S. President Bill Clinton on Saturday, campaign workers asked supporters to sign and mail cards that said "Yes! I'm an Iowan for Hillary" with their contact information as well as other supportive friends.

One small problem. In the upper right-hand corner of the card, it says "I, _____, pledge to support Hillary Clinton at my precinct caucus on January 14, 2008."

Unfortunately, that's 11 days too late. The Iowa caucuses are January 3 and organization is key to getting voters to go to the events and support their preferred candidate.

She just can’t do anything right :)

[AD from SpringBay]

It's bad enough that her heinous has to deal with the little people. She shouldn't have to actually pay attention to what she tells them. Good lawd! They might get the impression she doesn't really care.

Dear Rush Limbaugh - please run with this. A sound-byte would be marvelous.

Any Iowa voter who would vote for Hillary is probably too stupid to show up on time anyway.

[Emmett McCarthy]

Man, putting the words “get behind” and “Hillary” in the same sentence - Have you no decency? How am I supposed to sleep tonight?

[patriotspride]

Probably didn’t have her script to read from so never bothered to check the facts.................

[Hilltop]

[Emmett McCarthy]

Well, at least a trash can would fit over his head. What could you cover Hillary’s behind with?

[silentreignofheroes]

2008 being a leap year should just about be the straw,,,

[mylife]

Hey, She is a genius and the smartest woman in the world.
Who are we to doubt!
