    Clinton Staff Planted Question at Forum

    Clinton Staff Planted Question at Forum
    Saturday, November 10, 2007 7:07 AM

    An aide for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton gave a Grinnell College student a question to ask the Democratic presidential candidate during a forum this week in central Iowa.

    That the question had been planted by the campaign was not mentioned at the event.

    "This is not standard policy and will not be repeated again," the campaign said in a statement issued Friday night. Clinton herself did not know when she called on the student that the question had been suggested by one of her staff, the campaign said.

    "The senator had no idea," Clinton spokesman Mo Elleithee told The Associated Press.

    Clinton appeared at a biodiesel plant in Newton on Tuesday to introduce her energy plan. A student, Muriel Gallo-Chasanoff, later told Grinnell College's student newspaper, The Scarlet & Black, that she was asked by a senior Clinton staffer to pose a question about global warming. She also said that staffers prompted the senator to call on her, the newspaper reported.

    "A member of our staff did discuss a possible question about Sen. Clinton's energy plan at a forum," the campaign statement said.
