Hillary Clinton and Marco Rubio won endorsements Saturday from The Des Moines Register, Iowa's most influential newspaper. The editorial board cited the Democratic frontrunner's experience:
As first lady, she worked tirelessly on health care reform and, with bipartisan support, created the Children's Health Insurance Program that provides coverage for 8 million children.As a senator, she reached across party lines and joined forces with conservatives, including Sen. Lindsey Graham and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, to fight for job creation and universal health care.As secretary of state, she helped secure international sanctions against Iran and redefined her job by expanding America's diplomatic agenda to include poverty, women's rights, the environment and other issues.
