IOWA CITY, IA * It's a bird. It's a plane. It's a Hill-A-Copter!

Or so the Clinton camp has branded a helicopter that the candidate will
fly around in during her "Every County Counts Tour" across Iowa,
beginning Sunday.

Campaign staffers are calling the tour a five-day blitz across Iowa's 99
counties, but Clinton herself will only appear in 12. Husband/President
Bill and "others" will hit the remaining 87 checkerboard jurisdictions
that make up the Hawkeye State.

³In the final days before the Iowa caucuses, I want to tap into that
spirit so that every voice is heard on caucus night for universal health
care, a stronger economy and an end to the war in Iraq,² Candidate
Clinton said last night in Iowa, according to a press release.

(For a full list of Clinton's stops along the tour click here.)

There was no word on the former president's mode of transportation, but
given the recent ice storm in the eastern half of the state, a
His-and-Hers helicopter combo might not be a bad idea.

He might also consider a dog sled, which Estes Kefauver used to cross
snowy New Hampshire during the 1952 and 1956 presidential primary.
(Kefauver, a Tennessee senator, often outfitted himself in a coonskin
cap too. President Clinton rarely wore headgear on the trail, except a
baseball cap when jogging.)

The dogsled stunt worked for Kefauver, at least in New Hampshire, where
he won both times, before losing the nomination * again, both times * to
Adlai Stevenson.
