Why the need to taint it?

Hillary's campaign was having money problems, they've had a fantastic fundraising days and now are a bit back on track.

I thought Obama was gonna dominate her in the next few weeks but with all the kvetching about her fundraising seems to belie some insecurity about that brash prediction.

2. Yeah, it's hilarious. They can't give anything to Hillary.
It's awesome. I've never seen this sort of rabid insanity before at all.

They were dancing on her grave yesterday and last night. All fucking night long. She's broke, she's done, all your donations are going to pay back her loan, etc.

Now they're saying all their crap last night was actually a lie! She was never broke to begin with!

3. I'd rather see the penis-waving about campaign contributions stop entirely
It is rather obscene and Reaganesque to gloat about money in politics.

4. No insecurity - Just hating being lied by people. Now, they are going around bragging that the loan

was not a sign of problems, but a way to encourage people to donate. Which is it?

You may be surprised, but it is because of things like that that some of us women do not think she is the right person.

7. Where is the lie?
Seriously, the campaign was having money problems, why the need for the loan otherwise?

Staffers had apparently offered to work without pay.

In response they have received a tremendous amount of support and now seem a bit back on track.

10. They never said they were broke, just a bit strapped. What's the problem?
If you say you're broke that shows a bad signal. If you say you're strapped or a bit down, then people can support you.

You're the one spreading lies and spin Mass.

5. Yeah, but the Obama supporters are now claiming she never had money problems.
In other words, the negative shit will come no matter how you spin it!

6. Speaking for myself, because she's proving very hard to
put away.

This is the third time--NH and ST being the other two--where it seemed like it was possible for Obama to take command.

But your candidate is too plucky to let that happen.

Yet.

9. She has been resilient.
Far more resilient than even I thought she could be.
