Clinton: Staff Change Not Significant

(02-11) WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that the replacement of her campaign manager reflected a need to add more people to her campaign staff.

Former campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle will remain a trusted friend and adviser, Clinton said.

“There is just too much to be done, so we had to add some more people. There really is not significant change, we really just got to get more help, we just don’t have enough help,” Clinton told a Chicago television news crew. Solis Doyle is a Chicago native…

Clinton insisted she wasn’t concerned that the replacement of Solis Doyle, whose parents were Mexican immigrants, would anger Hispanic voters in Texas or other upcoming contests with a large number of Hispanic voters.

“No, no, not at all. We have a very strong base and she’s deeply involved in the campaign going forward,” Clinton said.

Clinton addressed a campaign audience in the District of Columbia one day before the nation’s capital holds its primary.

She told a small gathering sponsored by the National Council for Negro Women that she supports full voting rights for District residents.

“I think this is long overdue,” Clinton said to cheers. “I think it is wrong that we disenfranchise the people who live and work in this city.” …

Mrs. Clinton doesn’t seem to be very good at math.

Ms. Williams had already been added to Hillary’s staff several days ago. Ms. Doyle was fired.

So it’s not a matter of adding people to the campaign. It’s subtracting them.

She told a small gathering sponsored by the National Council for Negro Women that she supports full voting rights for District residents.

But Hillary sure does know how to pander.
