Hillary's 4 million pity donations |
|
I think the 4 million is overplayed. I do not think they donations will keep rolling in like they do for Obama. They are nothing but pity donations. I suspect Feburary will be another low month for Hilary and another huge month for Obama.

4. She can repay that loan at any time. |

I'm sure she'd be happy to get the interest on that loan.

she has to pay her staffers too, so that'll eat into that money that was donated too.

8. I believe the 40,000 or so new donors were a natural outgrowth of her ST WIN |

11. It seems like Hillary thrives off the pity play. Not the sort of strategy I'd like to see in the GE |
|
She's either getting chocked up or begging for cash.

15. It's donations of people who believe in Clinton |
|
To call it pity is insulting to the wing of democratic supporters of Clinton. Insults will only drive a wedge between the two camps of supporters. We donated because we believe.
