Primary: Chelsea Clinton returning to Rhode Island

Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton returns to Rhode Island today to help her mother's effort to win the presidential primary.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is battling for the Democrat nomination against Sen. Barack Obama with primaries held today in Ohio, Texas and Vermont, as well as the Ocean State.

Chelsea Clinton, who visited Rhode Island Friday, will join campaign volunteers in talking about her mother's presidential bid.

After visiting Twin Oaks in Cranston at 12:30 p.m.; she will attend a rally and thank volunteers at the campaign's Rhode Island headquarters at 175 Broad Street, Providence, at 1:15 p.m.

At 2 p.m., she will visit the American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees office at 1179 Charles Street, North Providence, to greet and thank volunteers, then she plans to visit Providence Place mall at 2:30 p.m. to greet voters.

Rhode Island has received a lot of attention leading up to the primary with visits from both candidates and others campaigning on their behalf.

Yesterday, Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry visited Rhode Island to campaign for Obama, while former Boston Mayor Raymond Flynn visited the Ocean State to campaign for Clinton.

Two robocalls from Billary in the last day, gak. And two mailings creating trash that damages the environment even if its recycled, which I do. What nuisances. Hillary, we don't like you. We really, really don't like you.

I don't believe that Chelsea brings credibility to the issues of the campaign. Her appearances appear to be just a ploy to appeal to younger voters.
