BUSTED: Hypocrite Hillary Caught Hoarding 99 Percent of Funds Raised for State Parties

This OP completely misinterprets the date presented.

First: A Joint Fundraising Agreement comes with an agreed upon formula: the first $2700 (FEC legal limit) goes to Clinton. The next $33,400 (also an FEC legal limit) goes to the DNC; any additional contribution goes to the State Parties. And while dinner with George Clooney gets the publicity, most contributors don't give that much, so there will always be a preponderance of funds going to Clinton. THe key is that the donor know this, and wouldn't have given less to Clinton or more to the DNC or State Parties if the JFA didn't exist. This is simply a convenience factor of writing only one check.

Second: The OP criticizes Clinton because the State Parties are giving funds to the DNC which "will use them to support Clinton". The DNC will certainly use funds to support the nominee, which will BE Clinton, but there's no evidence showing that they're spending money on her behalf now. And, the DNC will be spending money on behalf of Senate and House races, Governorhips and State Legislative Races, as well as allocating funds back to State Parties WHERE IT'S NEEDED.
