With the Iowa caucus a little more than a month away, the race among top-tier candidates Clinton, Illinois Sen. Barrack Obama and former South Carolina Sen. John Edwards has tightened. But Clinton, campaigning in New Hampshire, told CBS she has taken "nothing for granted" in Iowa.

"Campaigns have rhythm and we're now down to end. We're going to have a mad dash to Iowa caucuses, mad dash to New Hampshire and then keep going," she said.

Clinton said she will be more aggressive as the campaign moves along because "I have absorbed a lot of attacks, my opponents have basically had a free reign. After been attacked as often as I have from several of my opponents, you can't just absorb it, you have to respond."
