Enlisting Emily's List

"Why Caucus?"

That's the question asked in the eye-pleasing whispy text of new mailers from Iowa Women Vote! (the state's political arm of pro-choice org Emily's List). Emily's List is throwing big money behind Hillary Clinton in the effort to maintain her grip on the female vote in Iowa; polls show HRC losing ground to Barack Obama among women. So the barrage of mail couldn't come at a better time.

Here's a description of the two of the mailers hitting boxes now (full color, 8.5x11) ...

The first one features photos of a mother of two who plugs Clinton's record with kids. She says: "I'm supporting Hillary Clinton because she has always stood up for our childen. The least I can do is stand up for her at the Caucus."

The second profiles a teacher, who echoes the praise for Clinton's focus on children. "I've been going to the caucus for 28 years because it's just too important to skip," reads her quote.

Both mailers direct readers to the pro-Hillary girl-power site www.yougogirl.com to learn more.
