Let's play "Guess the Friday News Dump". My guess is:
Clinton is going to release those fundraising numbers that they held on to. Due date is April 20 (Sunday), so they would be smart to get them out today. Remember, the news reports said she raised $20 Million.

1. Correct. Just how much did she raise? More or less than 20 mil. Of that, how much is Primary money
and how much is GE?

2. If she waits until Monday to put those numbers out, it won't be good.
It will make her look weak, if they are less than that $20 Million.

3. I have a question related to this topic: She wants her campaign to pay her back
the $5 million she lent herself, plus interest.
From what source will the interest be paid?
Because it would certainly suck if she plans on using campaign contributions from supporters
to pay herself interest on a loan she made TO herself.

Anyone have any info on this? I'm not a financial whiz, so I may be misunderstanding the principles.

4. You would have to ask John & Teresa Heinz-Kerry.
They used the same method of campaign finance when things looked dismal.
