Hillary Campaign Event Canceled Due To Lack of Interest

New York senate candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton has hit some tough sledding during her upstate campaign swing this past week.

First her appearances on local talk radio sparked controversies about her own checkered past. And now the voters themselves may even be tuning her out.

At least one campaign event had to be canceled due to lack of interest, according to a brief Tuesday morning radio news item, a development that has attracted little if any other coverage.

"Imus in the Morning" newsman Charles McCord reported that local organizers decided to nix Hillary's keynote address at an invitation-only Rochester, N.Y., affair sponsored by the Cornell Cooperative Extension. Most of the invitees reportedly sent their regrets, prompting fears of an embarassingly low turnout.

"Few who bothered to send [their RSVP's] back agreed to show up," said McCord. "It was planned for a community center near Rochester. Organizers are now trying to reschedule the Cornell Cooperative Extension conference - but with another keynote speaker. Lack of interest, evidently, at least in this particular event with the first lady going to be there to deliver a speech. And they said, 'Well, no.'"

A spokesperson with the Cornell Cooperative Extension declined to explain on Wednesday why Hillary was dropped from his group's program.
