Clinton campaign spending worries supporters

Nwe York Times
Nearly $100,000 went for party platters and groceries before the Iowa caucuses, even though the partying mood evaporated quickly. Rooms at the Bellagio luxury hotel in Las Vegas consumed more than $25,000; the Four Seasons, another $5,000. And top consultants collected about $5 million in January, a month of crucial expenses and tough fund-raising.

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s latest campaign finance report, published Wednesday night, appeared even to her most stalwart supporters and donors to be a road map of her political and management failings. Several of them, echoing political analysts, expressed concerns that Mrs. Clinton’s spending priorities amounted to costly errors in judgment that have hamstrung her competitiveness against Senator Barack Obama of Illinois.

1. Wait, she's actually paying people to run this clusterfuck?

I assumed it was a volunteer effort by a pack of Cub Scouts.

3. Hey don't knock Cub Scouts! Those kids know how to run a candy sale.

I once called on the boy scouts to move a couple thousand books in my library. I told them what I needed done and how I had done it. Within a few minutes they came up with thier own idea, organized themselves into teams and within two hours those books were shifted and in perfect order.

I'd challange Penn and Wolfson and the rest of Hillary's team to do the same.

4. Didn't she proclaim one must MANAGE the bureaucracy??

Well, if you can't manage your own campaign or hire competent, efficient people to do it, why should the voters trust with the highest office in the land?

6. I think the party platters and groceries were for Mark Penn. Last week.
