Clinton brings campaign to Ariz.
LAVEEN — Hillary Clinton took the stage here Tuesday night, rallying a crowd of thousands with promises to bolster the economy, pull troops out of Iraq, and end Washington corruption if elected president.
"When I look at this crowd, I'm reminded of what an opportunity we have to take back this country and once again be proud of this country," Clinton said to loud applause. "If you're ready for change, I'm ready to lead."

In what was a brief campaign stop, the Democratic presidential candidate addressed an estimated 2,500 people in an auditorium at Cesar Chavez High School in this community just southwest of Phoenix. But thousands — 10,000, the campaign estimated — lined up outside and were turned away due to space constraints.
Saying the Bush administration has taken "a detour from our destiny," Clinton said she wants us to "get back to acting like Americans again." The New York senator promised investments in alternative energy and a "pay-as-you-go" policy on federal spending.

1. Arizona is HIllary Clinton Country. Might just turn this red state blue.
So many Northerners have moved down here that this state is in transition mode.

4. I hope she is reaching out for the Native American vote, too.

We have a gal, Mary Kim Titla, who is running for Congress on the Dem ticket. If she wins, she will be the 1st Native American female to enter the halls of Congress.
