Clinton Lent Campaign $5 Million, Considers More
New York Times, United States - 2 hours ago
... appeal to help match Hillary’s donation. Ha, clever.) And of course, we’re envisioning yet more messages from former President Bill Clinton and Chelsea.

Her advisers says she’s considering another loan because money is tight now — the mega-primaries yesterday were quite the financial drain. And although she won many states yesterday, including some very big states like New York and California, the victories weren’t resoundingly decisive enough — especially when you look at the extremely tight delegate matchup right now — to inspire a lot of new giving, Pat says.

Plus, many of her donors had already maxed out for the primary season and more of her money than that raised by the Obama campaign was pledged to the general cycle and can’t be used right now. Mr. Obama’s campaign boasted a haul in January of $32 million with a lot of new, smaller donors.

What the money message says:


``Money always has a voice,'' said Dennis Goldford, a professor of politics at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. Obama's fundraising ``is quite remarkable for an insurgent candidate'' and suggests ``some significant second thoughts'' about Clinton, Goldford said.
