Hillary Camp's latest moves are all about Bolstering her Weak Fundraising

Hillary's moves are all with a heavy longing look toward bolstering her Weak Fundraising results.

1. What is the Sandy Hook crying shame? -- Highlighting Sanders opposition to manufacturer liability, in order to ry to raise funds with trial lawyers who want expanded liability generally.

2. Why pick up on the details of breaking up banks? Hillary wants specifics so she can raise money from banks , and I'm sure Bernie was overly cautious knowing the tabloid press and others would be laying traps, and indeed they were.

3. Having her staff put out word to every media outlet that Sanders was unqualified, them complaining she never said "unqualified" herself, but Bernie did? A desperate move to bolster fundraising with women, who may take offense so long as Camp Hillary's role in this can remain concealed.

So if I were Bernie in New York, I'd keep on declining to specify which banks will he broken up how because she will just raise 1000 contributors for the legal max from banking execs. Everybody knows Bernie is serious, so he doesn't need the backup. And you know what, Hillary couldn't respond to the details without budding with her experts, which is precisely what Bernie wasn't allowed to have before being asked to answer.

Is there any move Hillary makes that isn't a fundraising angle for her?

So I am not sure where you are getting your notions about her "weak fundraising"

The youth today are both idealistic and wise...

That's why they reject the politics of money.
