How about a "back stage pass" Lottery to help with Hillary's debt? |
|
I am not sure about the legality of this, but if "Wheel of Fortune" can give away trips for spelling out things like.... Moonlight Stroll.... then it seems that the Clintons should be able to raffle off a trip to Denver to people who donate to Hillary. Besides, if you can rent out the Lincoln Bedroom you should be able to pull this one off.
Throw in a signed photo with Bill and Hill and even I (someone who is very unhappy with a number of her comments during the campaign) would be willing to donate for a shot at that, even if it were a million to one.
Maybe even multiple raffles.
If you donate $10.00 or more you are entered to win a trip to Denver, the "backstage pass" for Sen. Obama's speech and a photo with Bill and Hill which they will later sign and mail to you. (I trust their press people do make that happen)
Delegates who donate $50.00 or more receive the hack stage pass and the photo (since they will already be in Denver there is no reason to give them a trip)
Members of the Press who donate $100.00 or more are entered for an identical prize package. (Also they will need to get themselves to Denver
I am just spit balling here, clearly this idea can be improved upon. The Press portion of it especially.
All Sen. Obama would need to do is talk this up and it could help Hillary clear some portion of her debt. (and it shouldn't draw funds that might have been donated to his campaign) I am assuming that the Clintons would be willing to pose for photos and then sign them but that seems reasonable to me.

1. Why doesn't she have Elton John give her another concert? |

Not sure how that was legal but since they had one concert, why not another. Obama shouldn't spend timing retiring her debt (especially the money owed to Penn).

2. I agree, but right now he needs to hold joint fundraisers to help her. All I am suggesting is... |

the Clintons doing what Obama did.... but in a much bigger way
Then Obama "advertising" it when he is out campaigning anyways. An extra couple of minutes per event.
As for Sir Elton.. maybe he won't waste his time on someone who lost?? Dunno

is bullshit. I'll borrow 30 million dollars to beat the fuck out of you and then you raise the money to pay me back for the beating. I will say that she does have balls.
