1. Obama need to learn how to take advantage of people. It comes with EXPERIENCE

[Yael]

2. This doesn't break down monies in reserve for the GE

Latest is that she has $2mm on hand, $3mm in the hole if you take into account her loan to her campaign.

[FogerRox]

3. Fits with the not paying vendor stories... no?

4. But... but... it's only 3 million dollars...

... If she forgives her personal 5 million dollar loan to her campaign.

[napoleon_in_rags]

6. Well hey, look at it this way....

Given our current debts and deficits, Hillary might just be the more "American" candidate! ;)
