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.

You can see how "likeable" the World's Smartest Woman is HERE.
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.”
