The super PAC supporting Hillary Clinton has brought in $25 million in commitments since July 1, a senior Priorities USA Action official told POLITICO.

It's a big haul after a scuffling start that left Clinton and her top staff panicked. With the new commitments, Priorities' 2015 total rises above $40 million.

1. "Under the new rules that were adopted last year, someone can write a check for $300,000." n/t

2. Nice to see Hillary 's priorities remain exactly the same. Permanently.

3. The is the Super PAC that supports Hillary. This is not Hillary's campaign. nt

4. I'm sure she'll return any corporate money and refuse any future contributions from them.

Won't she?

6. It's not her money to return, it's the Super Pac's money. nt

7. So, will she reject their help and efforts because it's funded by corporate money?

8. Unilateral disarmament makes no sense in a post-Citizens United world.

Vowing to only fight with a slingshot when the other side has a nuclear bomb makes very little sense IMO.

But I'm not a campaign official, so you're asking the wrong person.

10. They do it, so I do it"? Isn't that the same reason she voted for Bush's war?

14. Yeah... Right... Uh huh

I realize you think we are idiots.

11. "... checks in the million-dollar range"

From the link:
"The super PAC’s haul comes largely from donors willing to contribute checks in the million-dollar range"

AKA -- the upper 1%

12. just yesterday the bernie crowd was bragging about bernie's million dollar haul. ooops nt

13. And they tied it to an "attack on Bernie!" without a shred of evidence.

15. This is the Shame of politics.

Perhaps this cycle it will change. Maybe not, though.

16. This is truly disheartening
