单选题Hillary Rodham Clinton released the first television spot of her Senate campaign this morning, a 30-minute commercial that will begin air ing statewide on Thursday. The spot, titled "First", uses numerous still photos to highlight landmarks in Mrs. Clinton"s career, while the voiceover says she is "more than a first lady."

Text of Hillary Commercial: First she became a lawyer, named one of the top hundred in America. Her first cause was children, fighting abuse and chairing the board of the Children"s Defense Fund. Her first priority was public schools, helping to establish teacher testing. More than a first lady. For 30 years, she"s fought for children and families.
