Hillary and Obama distribute talking points to surrogates - text
From http://thepage.time.com/ - -

Both campaigns stress the strengths of their Iowa organizations. But, fittingly, Clinton leads with “tested, ready to lead,” while Obama leads with “change.” Also, Clinton’s campaign hedges with answer to “What happens if Hillary doesn’t do well tonight?,” while Obama’s campaign claims the “most momentum.”

Clinton Campaign Talking Points Surrogate Talking Points
January 3, 2007

1) Today, Iowans get to pick a President, and they should ask themselves as they caucus, “Who would be the best president?” America faces a war abroad and a troubled economy at home — and at this critical moment we need Hillary Clinton because she is tested, ready to lead on Day 1, and offers real solutions to the big challenges we face.

2) Hillary has 35 years making change happen – from protecting kids from abuse, to reforming education in Arkansas, to helping get health care for 6 million children and for our nation’s reservists and guardsmen. Change isn’t something you just demand, or hope for, it is something you work for, and she has been working for it all her life.

3) In the White House, she will rebuild the middle class, curb the influence of the special interests, and restore this country to greatness. She will end the war, get healthcare for every American and renew our energy future. It will be a new beginning for all of us.

4) The Des Moines Register and Quad-City Times have joined the growing number of Iowans supporting her because she will make the best President and because they believe she will win in November. Hillary has stood up to the Republicans and beat them twice in landslides. She will inspire millions to come out and participate in the process to make history November 2008.

5) But to make history, we need all Iowans who support Hillary to caucus for her tonight. Every single person is critical. Go to www.hillaryclinton.com <http://www.hillaryclinton.com> to find your caucus site. Remember, get there by 6:30 pm and doors close at 7 pm!

Q: What happens if Hillary doesn’t do well tonight?
A: Well although Hillary started out, and remains ahead, nationally, Hillary started out behind in Iowa. Now, we have made real progress here, and we are going to do well tonight. We feel like we’ve got momentum behind us. She’s getting great crowds wherever she goes.

But regardless of the outcome this process moves to New Hampshire. Nevada and South Carolina are shortly after that. And then there are a whole number of large states on February 5. Hillary has always planned to run a national campaign, and is prepared to win the nomination.
