Clinton rejects US presidential front-runner label

Democratic US Presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday rejected the front-runner label, but acknowledged increasing attacks from rivals in both parties - which she said she will largely ignore.

"I'm well aware that my opponents on both sides are paying a lot more attention to me," Clinton said. "I'm reminded by some of my friends that when you get to be my age, having so many men paying attention to you is kind of flattering." Clinton is about to turn 60.
