Washington Whispers by Paul Bedard

She Was Their First Lady After All

February 11, 2007 12:00 PM ET | Permanent Link | Print

It's been painfully long since Hillary Rodham Clinton spent time in Arkansas, where she once served as first lady, but the locals hold no grudges. The New York senator's visit there earlier this month came because Bill Clinton's stepfather died and there was a funeral in his childhood home of Hot Springs. But he wasn't the star of the show—she was. And we hear that in a very short time she won back the affection of the so-called Arkansas Travelers, who pledge to campaign door to door in early primary states for her just as they did for Bill in 1992.

With Dan Gilgoff, Linda Robinson, Angie C. Marek, and Suzi Parker
