"The race...is closer than ever....we have a real fight on our hands"

There are still a lot of votes to be cast to win the Democratic nomination. But I have tremendous opposition.

We have an opponent who is outraising and outspending us.

9. Hillary's campaign has been trying to push a small donor strategy for at least a year

http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/clinton-hopes-tap-small-donor-network-beat-her-2008

<Clinton’s last presidential campaign was marked by a centralized campaign structure that turned off some activists and did not prioritize grassroots donations. The dependence on large donors became a serious problem when the Democratic primary dragged on longer than expected and Clinton ran out of money as her donors hit federal contribution limits.

“There was a mentality that we could count on double-max donors and be fine,” said one former campaign aide, who requested anonymity to speak candidly. “But the thing about max-out donors is that they max out. You need low-dollar donors to sustain, and you need to communicate that need to your grassroots and empower regular people who believe in your candidate but only have $10 to spare.”>

She has been using that $20.16 number all along. Judging from the number of private fundraisers she's been doing and the fundraising gap between her and Bernie, it doesn't appear that the small donors are cooperating. Maybe she needs to offer them the opportunity to get pictures taken with her and to write legislation.

10. Does Maddie know?!?! nt

[Buns_of_Fire]

18. Maddi had her chance. She blew it.

She was told in no uncertain terms that they weren't kidding. Now, she can just scratch "Ambassador" off her bucket list. Serves her right.

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

12. Do we make the check payable to Goldman Sachs? nt
