I want to meet the idiot who would actually donate money to Hillary Clinton to help her pay off her campaign debt. Hillary Clinton today asked her supporters for a little financial help.
According to many news reports:
In the email to loyalists, she directed them to an Internet video in which thanks them for their support, talks about her campaign's historic accomplishments, and praises Obama, who bested her for the nomination.
Next to the video on the website page is this message, "You and Hillary can write the next chapter of America's history together. By helping us pay off our campaign debt, you're not just helping Hillary elect a Democratic president and grow our majority in Congress. You're making it possible for her to work as hard as she can on the issues we care about."
In the report filed Friday with the Federal Election Commission, Clinton reported owing about $10 million to vendors as of May 31, and also having loaned her own campaign nearly $12.2 million. During May, as she fought to stay in the race, her campaign ran a deficit. She raised about $12.6 million, loaned herself $2.2 million -- but spent more than $19 million.
Essentially the new donors would be giving money directly to Hillary because far be it from her to donate money to her own campaign. This is not political (Democrat or Republican). This is plain dumb. If you really want to give money away, please send it to me. I'd gladly take your money and I'd even send you a rake, snow shovel, or "Randy Johnson Bobblehead" for your troubles. Thanks, in advance, sucker.
