— Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton told a crowd of supporters in Little Rock on Monday that she still feels a strong connection to the state where she spent 12 years as first lady, and she vowed to win its support in her presidential campaign.

"I intend to campaign throughout Arkansas," Clinton said. "I'm going to go throughout the state, with the governor, with my friends, taking the message of change and experience throughout this state, just like Iam throughout this country."

The New York senator made her remarks to about 150 people who sat on folding chairs and stood in the grass in the plaza across Woodlane Street from the state Capitol in Little Rock. She shared the stage with Gov. Mike Beebe, who announced that he was endorsing her in the Democratic primary.
