Clinton to Donors: Open Your Checkbooks for Obama


Thursday, June 19th, 2008

The New York Senator pushes her former funders to throw their weight behind the presumptive Democratic nominee on Thursday evening conference call.

Also said she doesn’t expect to make the money back for what she loaned to her campaign, but asked her donors to contribute anything they could to help pay back her vendors.

Clinton also suggested she would soon be making public statements about media coverage of the campaign, as well as the ways “women were discussed.”

1. She needs them to give to Obama, so his maxed out contributors will give to her.

That's how it will go.

Her maxed out contributors give to Obama, and then his maxed out contribuors do likewise for Hillary.

2. "public statements about media coverage of the campaign"

This doesn't sound too good. I hope that her 'statements' are meant to draw her supporters to Obama, but it doesn't sound like it from this article.

5. It is about how women are targeted which should also help michelle Obama

7. I don't see how you get anything negative out of that short article.

Senator Clinton has pledged to do everything she can to support Obama and I believe that's what she will do.

8. She and Obama are appearing together publicly on Friday

I wouldn't be surprised if that's what it will be about.

4. Clinton should put up a site where we can pay her vendors directly

I'd like to choose which vendor my hard earned money is going to and track it live online. It's not just Mark Penn but there are certain vendors who may have been involved in spreading certain info I don't want my money going to. Pizza makers, restaurateurs, small hotels are a different story and I'm willing to help.

6. She should of paid her vendors long time ago. n/t
