If Hillary wants drag this out, then we must discuss this.

Hillary (and Bill?) Loan Her Campaign $6 Million More

May 07, 2008 9:54 AM

The Clinton campaign reports today that in the last month Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, has loaned herself $6.425 million in the last month -- bringing her grand total of "loans" to her campaign $11.425 million, putting on in place to be the second biggest self-funder this election cycle, behind only former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

The loans were:

$5 million on April 11; $1 million on May 1; and $425,000 on May 5.

The dates are significant because she still felt the need to loan herself money even after her impressive win in Pennsylvania on April 22 -- meaning the $10 million she raised in the 24 hours after that win was not enough.

One other point of possible significance.

After her $5 million January loan was disclosed, Clinton said "I loaned the campaign $5 million from my money."

MY money, she said.

"The loan is from Senator Clinton's share of their joint resources," a Clinton spokesman told reporters, clarifying the point even further.

Sen. Clinton earned slightly more than $10 million (including an $8 million advance) for her memoir, Living History.

She has now loaned herself more than that -- $11.425 million -- meaning, presumably, she may now be lending her campaign funds former President Bill Clinton earned.

Their joint assets are their joint assets -- but she's the one who split the hairs on "my money" back in February.

More to the point, this news may give the media more of a reason than ever to inquire as to how the former President has made his money -- something he has been reluctant to discuss.

Now, we can get back to this:

Where did Bill get that money?
Who is financing this Campaign?
Who will a Clinton Presidency be beholden to?

2. I know this wasn't your point, but I think your question suggests...

that maybe the Clintons aren't as beholden to entrenched interests as some of us may have thought? If she was the corporate favorite, you bet they'd be kicking in the bucks to keep her campaign afloat.
