Clinton's Slogan? She's "Ready"

MILFORD, NH, Jan. 4 – Hillary Clinton led her appeal to New Hampshire voters here tonight with a new slogan “Ready”, which was printed on the placards her supporters waved in the air.

In a campaign heavy on long pitches, this is the shortest slogan we've seen thus far.

"Are you ready to pick a president?” she asked the audience at the state Democratic Party's 100 Club dinner, recalling her closing speeches to Iowans a few days ago that included the same sort of rallying cry and call and response style.

"Are you ready for universal health care, for a stronger economy?," she asked the crowd.

She went on to deliver a pretty standard speech, but spent a bit more time than usual talking about how proud she was to be a Democrat, a way to highlight the past successes of her husband, the “"Comeback kid” of New Hampshire in 1992.

"I am proud to be a Democrat,” she said. "I am proud of the progress that we made during the 1990s under last the Democrat elected twice in the United States and I know, I know we can do this again.”
