Hillary is behind in Donations she needs the support
Edited on Sun Mar-23-08 10:57 PM by Ichingcarpenter
Of only 4000 more corporate backers
to help her justify her vote
for this stupid war and help her get out the red
in her donations.

Hillary's War support from the Military Industrial Complex
is greater than any candidate including McCain.

Too bad that some, could be, financial supporters, are dead now.
This War and occupation ...... was wrong then and
it is terribly wrong now......4000 dead Americans and over
a million Iraqis

4. Ms Clinton DU supporters are dying off as the desperation increases.
Im sorry for their losses, many of them are very intelligent and add alot to the discussions before the primaries of course, but like the way Mr Obamas much to extreme supporters, unlike his "normal" supporters, much of the desperation is weeding out by natural selection and the tombstoning increases.

7. Maybe I have
bias but I can't think of one "extreme" Obama supporter other than myself, of course:)

10. As an Obama supporter I can say there have been a few.....
But like I said there has been a weeding of the desperate, unfortunately that has struck more dramatically on the side of Ms Clinton as their desperation and ferrel behavior has increased.

2. I think here "big" donors (AKA, Corporations) are starting to think they are just
wasting their money at this point.

They are not dumb, and they are not going to through away tens of millions of dollars at Hillary when her chances are 10%.

You see unlike most of Hillary supporters, they actually good at math.

3. To be fair, her home state is also big on defense contracts.
They're part of her natural base.

8. Not true the Big Military industrial donors are from out of her state.
Clinton's major industry benefactors - donors who gave the $4,600 maximum allowed by law -- include Roger A. Crone, Boeing's president of Network and Space Systems; Stanley Roth, Boeing's Vice President for Asia, International Relations, $4,600; Anne Sullivan, a Raytheon attorney; William Lynn, Raytheon's Senior Vice President for Government Relations; and Michele Kang, Northrop Grumman Vice President for health science solutions.

So far, Mrs. Clinton has received $52,600 in contributions from individual arms industry employees. That is more than half the sum given to all Democrats and 60 percent of the total going to Republican candidates. Election fundraising laws ban individuals from donating more than $4,600 but contributions are often "bundled" to obtain influence over a candidate.
