MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa--Hillary Clinton just concluded an event here as part of her bus tour through the state onboard the "Middle Class Express."

About halfway through the speech, Clinton was attacking President Bush's veto of SCHIP, and suggested one way to solve the problem. "Let's veto George Bush!" she thundered. But it was a bit more than her vocal chords could handle. She began coughing and her voice cracked, turned horse, and faded.

"I've been talking so much I've lost my voice," she said.

Within a few minutes she had regrouped and it was back to regularly scheduled carping.

Rudy Giuliani has staked out a strategy of running against Hillary Clinton rather than his GOP rivals, while Clinton continues to run against Bush rather than her fellow Democrats.
