Hillary is $10million in debt. If her supporters won't fund her campaign, is she viable in the GE? |
|
Hillary Clinton's campaign is $10million in debt. Obama drew in $41million in contributions last month.
What do Hillary Clinton's supporters REALLY feel about her campaign that they aren't telling us? Why aren't they contributing to Hillary's campaign with the same generosity and enthusiasm that Obama's supporters are contributing to the Obama campaign?
If Hillary's supporters are unwilling to fund her campaign, I believe that's a clear indication that Hillary is not viable in the General Election.
I believe it is illogical to believe that, if she did win, that Obama's supporters would not only all vote for her, but would contribute to her campaign at the level that they have to the Obama campaign.
Many Democrats have said they wouldn't vote for her under any circumstances. Others who said they would hold their noses and vote for her if she won the primary. In addition, some Obama supporters are reaching the limit of what they can donate to any campaign.
Hillary is already $10million in debt. She continues to siphon off resources from the Democratic Party and its members. If her own supporters are reluctant to adequately fund her campaign, she should simply take the hint and withdraw from the primary.

2. Excellent point. Especially since she wants to put an "umbrella of deterence"... |
|
...over the Middle East, and any country that attacks Israel would be drastically dealt with by the United States.
The Iraq quagmire (which Hillary endorsed with her vote) is killing our economy and our respect and standing in the international community. What do you think would happen to us if we started another war with another Middle Eastern country? You can take all of bad shit that has been delivered to us by the Iraq war and put an exponent on it. THAT would be what Hillary's Middle East foreign policy would deliver ot us.

4. This is what will stop her campaign |
|
Forget delegates. If she can't raise enough money to compete in the upcoming primaries she'll be forced to get out. I wouldn't be surprised if her finance people aren't telling her this already. That's why PA is so vital for her.
And she can get out gracefully and gain stature. She'll have campaign money that she can use to grease other campaigns and get support. She can be a tremendously important Senator if the next President doesn't name her to another post.
