What’s in a name?
That’s what the bookmark with a vampire-like character asks about Transylvania University, the latest stop for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s never-say-die presidential campaign.
Yes, Transylvania is a region of Romania.
But it’s also a university in Kentucky, which holds presidential primaries tomorrow.
More than 1,000 people attended a Clinton campaign rally on the campus of the Lexington, Ky. school tonight. Former President Bill Clinton joined his wife at the university, which officials said was last visited by a president when then-Vice President George H.W. Bush dedicated a library addition.
The former president brushed aside claims that his wife’s campaign no longer has a chance of winning. “They’ve declared it dead more than a cat’s got lives,’’ Bill told the Transylvania crowd.
Earlier today the New York senator took a page from her husband’s recent campaign stops and spoke from the from porch of a home in a central Kentucky community located in the middle of coal country.
She is planning on spending Election Night at a victory celebration in Louisville followed by a trip to South Florida on Wednesday to hammer home her position that the Florida and Michigan delegations need to be seated at the Democratic National Convention in August.
Chelsea Clinton is campaigning for her mother in Oregon today.
