Clinton Owes $200k in Unpaid Bills to PA Firms

Maybe small businesses should begin to request cash up front, at least when it’s coming from Hillary Clinton’s faltering campaign for President…

Despite Barack Obama’s seemingly insurmountable lead in delegates, Hillary Clinton has been quick to list reasons why she should stay in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Some Pennsylvania business owners would add one more: So she can raise enough money to pay them back.

Clinton ended April about $19.5 million in debt — nearly 10 times more than Obama, whose debt is $2 million. Clinton owes $206,524.51 to businesses and individuals in Pennsylvania, according to reports filed late Tuesday with the Federal Election Commission. Presumptive Republican nominee John McCain reported about $968,000 in debt, none of it in Pennsylvania.


Hillarys bills in Pa.

Well, Hillary,
Why don’t you just ask your loyal supporter Gov. Rendell to float you the ca$h for your Pa. bills.
He’s a loyal supporter. Tell him to put his $$$$ where his mouth is.

Great idea, but there

Great idea, but there probably won’t be a response from Rendell.

Where is the money actually coming from in Obama's campaign?

The question should be is where is Obama getting his campaign money from? Now that is more than interesting than trying to trash Hillary for some debts that she is going to pay. You writers really need to get a life and tell the truth for once.

Obama's money

The money is coming for me and my friends. Why? You can bet it is from loyal supporters. I give every other week. Or the best answer is none of your damn business.

Obama's money

He gets a lot of money from small donations especially over the Internet. I’m sure some of those donations are from wealthier donors. Also, I believe there must be numerous supporters out there holding fundraisers.

His money...

comes from the 3 million donors that have donated on average $75 per person.

Does that better help you understand where his money came from. HRC has failed the most important aspect of “being ready on day one”; running a horrible campaign that includes being in debt over $29 million after raising over $250 million. Explain that, please.

It’s all okay. Thanks

It’s all okay. Thanks largely to the Clintons, with a lot of help from Mr. Bush, we each owe the government about half a million.
Who are these pikers to complain?

Clinton Owes $200k ... "Get the cash up front"

This has been an old systemic problem with many presidential candidates.
In the 1972 PA primary campaign, Hubert Humphrey’s organization stiffed a Wilkes-Barre hotel owner for $1,400 (Lot of dough back then) and that hotel owner never did get paid.
If history is any judge, chances are those people stiffed for that 200 grand will never see their money.

Important safety tip

...If you deal with politicians or their consultants or campaigns, get your money up front. Period. End of story.
