Marathon Pundit: Hillary opens Little Rock campaign office

Hillary Rodham Clinton wasn't in Little Rock, Arkanas--except in spirit--when her campaign opened an office this afternoon in the downtown part of the city--just a mile or so from her onetime place of employment, The Rose Law Firm.

From KARK-TV:

She spent 20 years in this state...now presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is opening campaign headquarters for her run for president, here in Little Rock Thursday. The office is at LaHarpe and State Streets in downtown Little Rock. Doors officially opened at 4:30 p.m. Thursday with a reception. National campaign chair and former DNC chair Terry McAuliffe gave opening remarks along with Attorney General Dustin McDaniel, Arkansas Treasurer Martha Schoeffner and Pine Bluff Mayor Carl Redus. Campaign officials say their headquarters is one of Clinton's first to open in the early states and optimism is very strong. Mrs. Clinton is in New Hampshire Thursday. In a press statement she says she is delighted to be opening a first office in Arkansas and the outpouring of support from old and new friends has been overwhelming.
