Breaking: Romney charged his campaign interest for his loan!!!...
Advertisements [?]
Ohh... my mistake... It was Hillary who charged her campaign interest on her loan. Romney showed a little respect to his supporters and didn't use their money to make a small profit. Sorry, but Hillary is WRONG on this issue!!! How could she ask her supporters to donate to her campaign when she is making a little profit from those donations.

Hillary Clinton's $5 million loan to her campaign won't be a total loss for the candidate.

Campaign finance documents filed today show that she's charging her campaign an interest rate of 1.26%.

It's a modest rate which means that -- if she pays herself back with donor contributions -- she still would have been better off putting her money in a savings account at a commercial bank.

Mitt Romney this year did not charge his campaign interest.

Clinton's loan has not, however, been paid back.
