Ms. Clinton - An Excellent Investment For The Wealthy
Edited on Tue Oct-03-06 07:48 AM by MannyGoldstein
From Rawstory: Clinton top recipient of money from 27 industries

Since her first run for the Senate in 2000, Clinton has raised more than $45 million dollars from donors, a figure never before attained by a Congressional candidate. This extraordinary fundraising by the junior senator from New York takes on greater import given her widely speculated-on presidential hopes.

“No Senate candidate has ever raised more money from other people than Senator Clinton has,” says Massie Ritsch, speaking for the campaign finance watchdog Center for Responsive Politics. “By our count she is the #1 recipient of money from 27 different industries, from accountants to Hollywood.”


I reckin' that worshipping the Golden Triangle works pretty well!!!

1. If you are going to win elections, you have got to have LOTS of MONEY.....
to combat and counter the rethug BIG MONEY MACHINE. MannyGoldstein, I'm starting to wonder what your true agenda is all about; whether you are truly supportive of Democrats or something else.

2. It's about time Democrats have someone who has the ability to..
raise money to fight the big money machine of the Republicans. She is raising it to help the Democrats win elections, not for her personal gain. That's the way of politics if you want to win.
