Hillary inviting Iowans to "come visit"

ALBANY, New York (AP) -- With a visit to Iowa not considered the politically smart thing to do just now, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is instead inviting Iowans to come see her in Washington.

Clinton aides Friday confirmed that the former first lady -- widely expected to seek the Democratic nomination for president in 2008 -- is inviting supporters to her Washington home for a fundraiser.

Campaign spokeswoman Ann Lewis declined to say when the event would be but said the sole purpose was to raise money for Clinton's Senate re-election in 2006, not to court support in a state that hosts the caucuses that kick off the presidential election cycle.

"There is no other agenda," Lewis said

Uh, sure, O.K......;-)
