Reply #9: Any candidate running for national office has a 'financial cookie monster' along for the ride... [View All]

No matter how much $$ is raised, the 'financial cookie monster' has to be fed, and it is a constant struggle to raise enough money to cross the finish line.

Campaigns today keep close tabs on not only daily and cumulative receipts, but 'anticipated fundraising' and the ability to obtain loans based on those anticipated receipts.

If we expect our nominee to handle the national budget expenditures based upon how they handle their campaign financies, we are sure to be disappointed. There are very few similarities between the two.
