Very simple, Clinton out of money is devastating for two reasons:
1) Donors would not want to give anymore, even if they could
2) So called Super Delegates will start leaving the sinking ship

1. Hillary is not out of money.
But that hasn't stopped lying Obama supporters from saying so

9. Won't know until Feb 20th when FEC reports are due.
Even then we will be dependent upon candidate updates.

11. As always, do 45 seconds worth of research...
...and it will save you embarrassment.

http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/index.asp">Simple research and Obama support don't seem to go hand in hand.

She has more cash on hand than Obama does.

5. Honestly
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 06:23 PM by Bleachers7
Based on what I have read. It sure sounds like it. And I haven't seen anything that says officially that she's not out of money.

They're borrowing money.
Staff isn't getting paid.
She didn't run ads in a bunch of states.

EDIT: I just found this quote too: "Her advisers says she’s considering another loan because money is tight now"

12. I just got an e-mail from her...
...and they are trying to raise $3,000,000 in three days. I've been on her e-mail list since her second run for senate and I admit I don't read all of them, but I've never seen this kind of fundraising drive from her before.
