A Rare Chelsea Comment ... And Plea

LAS VEGAS -- At Legacy High School today, a questionner interrupted a 90-minute 'Q and A' with former President Bill Clinton to ask his daughter to comment about the election.

Chelsea Clinton almost never remarks publicly about Hillary Clinton or the campaign, but has dutifully crisscrossed key early states by her mother's side. Though a famous face in American politics, her voice is totally unfamiliar. Clinton stuck to a safe topic this afternoon ... young voters.

The former first daughter took the microphone and waved. "Hi!" she said, her voice bright, her tone almost introductory.

She said that one of the most notable aspects of the 2008 contest "so far is that young people are motivated to pay attention and hopefully motivated to participate."

"Please caucus," she urged. "Please vote. Participate. Be counted."
