Hillary Clinton can't get enough of Vegas, that's why she has opened up a campaign headquarters there!

Clinton vs. Edwards, not Obama: ‘User Generated Politics’ live from Nevada I reported in February, live blogging the “first in the nation presidential candidate forum” of campaign 2008 which took place in Carson City, Nevada.

In opening the proceedings, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said, “This is more great news for Nevada. This Forum is a great opportunity for candidates to discuss Nevada issues and lay the groundwork for winning the West, which will be key to Democratic victory in 2008.”

As Clinton underscored from day one of her campaign, SHE is in to win, and she now has a winning hand in pivotal Nevada.

Review-Journal reports: "Nevada Democrats want Hillary Clinton to be their presidential nominee, while the Republican field is practically a four-way tie, according to a new Review-Journal poll of partisans who say they will participate in the state's nominating contests next year."

"Hillary is the clear front-runner on the Democratic side," said Brad Coker, managing partner of Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc., which conducted the survey. "The Republican race is just wide open. There's no clear favorite."

On Monday, Clinton campaign Chair Terry McAuliffe "addressed a crowd of more than 400 supporters who packed the house for the grand opening celebration of Nevadans for Hillary headquarters in fabulous Las Vegas."

After meeting so many devoted volunteers and supporters - from students to retirees, and everyone in-between - I can say without a doubt that Hillary is a star attraction in Las Vegas!

McAuliffe confides: "I also had to laugh when I saw the restrooms delineated for "President" (women's) and "First Man" (men's)!"

WHAT DO YOU THINK? IS HILLARY ON A CLEAR PATH TO THE WHITE HOUSE?
