With major fundraising wins under her belt, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton now enjoys strong showings in two new polls.
CNN reports that Sen. Hillary Clinton is riding a political high less than three months before the Iowa caucuses.
The New York Democrat reported raising $27 million in what is historically a slow fundraising period, and all but $5 million of it can be spent in her quest for the Democratic presidential nomination.
On Sunday, a new Des Moines Register Poll showed that she is leading her Democratic opponents in this crucial early voting state. And a just released Associated Press national poll shows that Clinton leads her closest rival, Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, by 21 points.
Clinton hits the road Monday for her “Middle Class Express” tour across Iowa, and this week, the bus won’t be fueled just by diesel.

You say: I dunnoh,she has an 'evil laughter' says FOX.
Of course FOX would say something like that. They are not an unbiased news service. They are all rabid Republicunts. Rush Limbaugh is their hero.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not a democrap. So, i can bash both sides with impunity. That is called unbiased.
Why talk about someone's personal attributes when, in Hillary's case, we can discuss:
White water
FBI records scandal
Vince Foster
greasy commodity trades
Sandy Berg(L)ars chinese and russian campaign funds
Mr. Hsu and his greasy funds
I guess we'll have to wait unitl after the primaries...
...is now on Hillary's private payroll.
Why IS it she always comes up asian businessmen and improper campaign funds?????
SP4 needs a nap - he keeps repeating himself! Hillary would be such an improvement over Bush, but a lot of so-called men wouldn't vote for a woman regardless of the qualifications. They can't rid themselves of the good-old-boy mentality!
Good ole SP4 grasping at straws again .Was there any condemnation in all these cases mentioned by him?Was there any involvement from Hillary ?Of course SP4 is the king of character assassination with nothing to back up his vague accusations .Absolutely nothing .Using a tactic that has served the neocons well during the previous years,implemented by FOX network;throw mud at a candidate,keep throwing and throwing ,and eventually the most mentally impaired part of the electorate will start to believe it .No matter if it is true or not .Hell,some others might even start to doubt ...
This is what SP4 is doing for months now here .Repeating 'd nauseam 'his lies. .Honest people are disgusted by slander.
Boy, you really ARE from Europe...or Borneo!
Are you actually trying to say that the FBI records scandal never happpened? How about the greasy commodity trades?
Vince Foster and the travel office scandal?
Chinese and russian campaign money...????(asians...??)
Mr. Hsu's money going into Hillary's coffers????? (more asians... go figure?)
Her and Bill's greasy catholic church land mess????
White Water?????
Tonny, who are you trying to fool?
Don't worry, Tonny, there's LOTS of time to discuss it.
ago when SP4 defended Bush at all costs; even to the point of looking like a complete idiot with no sense, a moron, a nincompoop. I'm glad to see he is on the road to recovery.
turned down Hsu's contribution.
She has never been condemned for anything worth mentioning ....except in the neocon biased trash media like FOX ,now reduced to discuss her 'evil laughter' as an important topic but trying desperately to bury all the real scandals like torture,kidnapping,the use of mercenaries in an illegal war,putting these same mercenaries above all laws ,looting the state coffers and handing out everything to the military industrial complex ,refusing to provide health care to millions of cgildren and about 50 million adults with the hypocritical excuse of ' principles' .THose neocons know their priorities indeed .Where is the corruption and the embezzlement SP4?With Hillary ?Are you for real ?
tonny from belgium, you ought to stop holding back and say what's really on your mind. Of course, I agree with everything you just said and for your entertainment, here is part of GWB's resume; more to follow,
Attacked and took over two countries.
Spent the surplus and bankrupted the treasury.
Shattered record for biggest annual deficit in history.
Set economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12 month
period.
Set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock market.
First president in decades to execute a federal prisoner.
First president in US history to enter office with a criminal record.
First year in office set the all-time record for most days on vacation by any president in US history.
After taking the entire month of August off for vacation, presided over the worst security failure in US history.
Set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips than any other president in US history.
GW Bush:
Resided over the HIGHEST stock market in US history.
has a $436 billion dollar tax receipt SURPLUS in excess of the estimated income over 4 years of receipts.
Record low inflation
Record high employment
De-nuclearized Libya.
De-saddamized Iraq.
De-talibaned Afghanistan's government.
Has N. Korea dealing.
First president in decades to execute a CONVICTED federal CRIMINAL.
Never lied to a federal judge
Never took chinese campaign funds and then got MFN status for them
Never took Korean campaign funds and then signed a phoney treaty with them
Never sold a pardon to Marc Rich
Never obtained 500 FBI records on his political enemies
Has not been disbarred for lying to a federal judge
Was never involved in a ponzi scheme to defraud investors like White Water or the catholic land scheme.
Never got sandy Berg(l)ar to steal documents for him
Never reemployed Sandy Beg(l)ar afterwards to reward him.
AND, NOT ONE SINGLE TIME, HAVE IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS BEEN BROUGHT!
Check that record, and, by all means, get back to us!
..say hello to Mr. Hsu when you see him, Hillary! Maybe he and sandy Berg(l)ar can bunk together!
in response to the astonishing array of half and no-truths above, Li'l Bush doesn't need to lie to a Federal judge, because he has people do it for him.
And then they do, he pardons them. (well, maybe they 'merely' lied to a grand jury, eh?)
Of course, this was the same Li'l Bush -- the one presiding over the 'cakewalk' in Iraq, and all-time record deficits and a weakening dollar! -- who was *appointed* by Federal Judges (his daddy's appointees) in the first place, so maybe he owes 'em.
Just like he owes the oil companies he supports so well, y'know?
Actual Patriot. SP4 has always been known to back Bush regardless of the circumstances and the crap he has to spew. He denies Bush is harming the country so many have sacrificed for. He's troubled I guess.
In my first two years in office over 2 million Americans lost their job.
Cut unemployment benefits for more out of work Americans than any president in US history.
Set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12 month period.
Appointed more convicted criminals to administration positions than any president in US history.
Set the record for the least amount of press conferences than any president since the advent of television.
Signed more laws and executive orders circumventing the Constitution than any president in US history.
Presided over the biggest energy crises in US history and refused to intervene when corruption was revealed.
Presided over the highest gasoline prices in US history and refused to use the national reserves as past presidents have.
Cut healthcare benefits for war veterans, and vetoed for children.
Set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously take to the streets to protest me (15 million people), shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of mankind.
Dissolved more international treaties than any president in US history.
My presidency is the most secretive and un-accountable of any in US history.
