Hillary in Unprecedented TV Blitz

NewsMax:
Eclipsing the nine Democratic presidential hopefuls as they near a critical debate set for Tuesday night in the leadoff primary state of New Hampshire, Clinton made back-to-back-to-back appearances on three Sunday network (ABC, CBS and NBC) talk shows.

The media tour-de-force marks a scheduling feat usually reserved for major White House figures at times of crisis.

With polls showing Clinton as far more popular among Democratic voters than any of her party's White House candidates, her unprecedented TV time reinforces her prominent place on the national political landscape.

Sounding very much like a presidential candidate, Hillary waxed on key international issues to CBS’s John Roberts on Face the Nation:

“In the Afghan situation, of course, American troops are under American command even though NATO troops are in there and we want more NATO troops, and even though the UN will oversee the elections, there are many ways of working this out. The administration's stubborn refusal to try to enlist friends and allies to be partners in our effort in Iraq I think is undercutting the legitimacy and the potential success of what we are trying to accomplish.
