Credit Counseling for the Clinton Campaign
from Americablog

Since Hillary Clinton is going to need help paying off her massive debt, couple things need to be done. First, any credit counselor would tell Clinton to cut spending or more simply put "The first step towards decreasing debt is to stop creating debt."

Take the first step. Stop wracking up another million a day. Cut the credit cards. Take down the t.v. ads. Get a smaller plane (or fly commercial.)

But, I have another proposal. It's this campaign's equivalent of the "swear jar." You know, where people pay a dollar every time they swear. We need to set up a "negative jar." Every time Hillary says something negative about Obama, it costs her a million dollars in debt assistance. If one of the campaign lackeys says something negative, it costs $500,000. And, for Bill, it's $2 million. He should know better -- and he can always go give a speech to some foreign government to make it up.

Simple point here: Hillary's going to need help. She shouldn't be biting the hand that's going to have to feed her.



I think that's fair. If Senator Obama will be offering to fundraise for her to retire the debt she insists on increasing, maybe there should be some ground rules. The "Swear Jar" is a great incentive for her and her surrogates to keep it positive.

What do you think?
