Clinton assures donors after losses

[sniffa]

BOSTON — Attempting to reassure anxious donors, Hillary Rodham Clinton on Sunday outlined a road map she said she will follow to beat Barack Obama in the Ohio and Texas primaries March 4.

Clinton insisted that her campaign is on track and moving forward, despite losing 11 contests to Obama since Feb. 5.

Clinton blamed her woes in part on unfair press coverage but said she believed Obama had come under increased media scrutiny in recent days. She urged the group to watch the latest episode of "Saturday Night Live," which featured a skit mocking last Thursday's CNN debate as little more than a love fest for Obama.

Clinton also lamented being outspent by Obama in several early voting states, despite burning through nearly $130 million of her own.

I wonder why she didn't also ask her reassured donors to help her repay her mounting debts, and her loan?

2. She is citing SNL to donors? Oh dear god.... what the hell is wrong with her.

She should be worried after her deplorable behavior this weekend. She and her campaign have made some boneheaded moves that will probably cost her...

If not, then I worry about my party.

3. My eyes are rolling..SNL???? n/t

5. LOL!

Yeah -- there is that. The SNL defense coming from the person who wants to manage and lead this country but can't even seem to manage and lead her own campaign.

16. "Bitch is the new black" hilary

tells her donors..they said it on snl so it Must be true.

4. She needs them to fund all of the money already spent. Too many open invoices at this point.

6. Her campaign cites an SNL skit? Jeebus. And her campaign finances is her own problem,

given the financial lead and lead in the polls she started out with and how they squandered them both. Not exactly a persuasive argument to continue to financially support a mismanaged campaign operation that had the lead and is now running behind.

8. The SNL Skit Where She Says Her Base Was 80 Year Old White Women?

:rofl:

offered up SNL as a reassurance!
