 Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton has taken her bid to become the first female US president to Iowa, where the party will hold its first election to pick the 2008 candidate. One week after entering the race, the US senator and wife of former president Bill Clinton told a packed school gymnasium in Des Moines that President George W Bush's Republican administration had reversed decades of progress. "I fear the current president and vice-president are going to leave a pretty big hole to be dug out of," she told 1,400 placard-waving supporters. |
