" Santiago Solis, a Mexican immigrant with a third-grade education, worked as a janitor in Chicago to provide for his children. When his daughter, Patti, was accepted at Northwestern University, it was one of the proudest days of his life. Now, Patti Solis Doyle is Hillary Clinton&amp;#039;s campaign manager \u2014 the first Latina to run a presidential campaign.  With her dark hair, dancer&amp;#039;s posture, and Prada heels, Solis Doyle arrives at her office in Arlington, VA, looking stunning \u2014 but also a little worn out. No matter the day, it promises to be a tough one. Although Clinton has all the things female voters gravitate toward \u2014 a concern for the problems of working families and a background in health-care policy and education \u2014 she&amp;#039;s not an easy sell.  &amp;quot;We have this running joke,&amp;quot; Solis Doyle has said. &amp;quot;Hillary calls me up and says, &amp;#039;What do people think of me?&amp;#039; I reply, &amp;#039;They think you&amp;#039;re the devil, a little bit.&amp;#039;&amp;quot;  Clinton is an intensely private woman and understandably press-shy, given the grueling scrutiny of her marriage, her business dealings, and her hairstyles in the past. Part of Solis Doyle&amp;#039;s job is to humanize Clinton and make her accessible to voters.  In light of that, Solis Doyle, 42, works with an army of media strategists, fund-raisers, and political advisers; in meetings at campaign headquarters, she and staff members argue over strategy. &amp;quot;In the end, you have to make a decision,&amp;quot; Solis Doyle says. &amp;quot;So when consensus cannot be reached, I&amp;#039;m the one who has to say, &amp;#039;OK, we&amp;#039;ve heard all sides. Here&amp;#039;s what we&amp;#039;re going to do.&amp;#039;&amp;quot;  Solis Doyle is a powerful figure in the campaign and has earned a fearsome reputation. She has been called a &amp;quot;control freak&amp;quot; (Chicago Tribune), &amp;quot;brutally competitive&amp;quot; (Fox News Network), and a &amp;quot;chief enforcer&amp;quot; (New York magazine). &amp;quot;I have to make the call,&amp;quot; Solis Doyle says. &amp;quot;Sometimes I am not very popular because of that.&amp;quot;  Popular or not, Solis Doyle has helped Clinton raise $90 million and become a leader in the race. Such success, say experts, can be attributed in part to a regimented approach, with an emphasis on loyalty that can be traced back to the early days of Bill Clinton&amp;#039;s bid for the presidency \u2014 the time when Solis Doyle first joined Team Clinton.  Her daily tasks vary, but the demanding schedule (18- to 20-hour days) does not. She gets up at 6 a.m., fixes breakfast (&amp;quot;cereal, mostly&amp;quot;), and then prepares for a 7:30 a.m. conference call. She tries to come home for dinner and to put her two kids to bed. From 9 p.m. to 2 a.m., she reads e-mails.  Fueling Solis Doyle&amp;#039;s drive is her deep friendship with her boss. &amp;quot;When my children were born, Hillary came to visit them in the hospital. When my father passed away, she called my mom at the hospital,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;I would take a bullet for her.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
