Hillary Clinton Debt

Boston Globe's Political Intelligence:

Hillary Clinton's campaign debt at the end of March was bigger than it appeared because she didn't list the $5 million she loaned herself, a campaign finance watchdog group reported this afternoon.

Clinton, in her filing with the Federal Election Commission, reported that her campaign had $9 million in cash on hand as of March 30, and $10 million in debts.

Me thinks HRC's campaign needs to look into staying at Motel 6 instead of the Hyatt, and flying coach. Maybe make her revolutionary speeches in Bubba's Greasy Spoon instead of high school gyms. No offense to Bubba!

I agree wholeheartedly. Perhaps if they didn't live the high life on the road they wouldn't be so far in debt and owe so much money everywhere. Shameful that they can't pay their bills and have millions in the bank.

So after raising $10 million after the PA primary she's STILL in debt?!

and how's she planning on fixing our economy if she can't even keep her campaign out of debt?

At least Obama pays his bills. Your gal Hillary, on the other hand, is stiffing her creditors to the tune of $10 million. This is the woman who wants to be President and cares about the little guy. A large majority of the creditors on her list ARE the little guy and she is putting their businesses in jeopardy. I'm quite sure, when she contracted for their services, she did not say "By the way, I'll pay you some time after the presidential race is over".

chocolate cake? This is a rather racially insensitive remark in my opinion but what I've come to expect during this crazy primary.

Ahhh....do­n't we all just love seeing Rodham's racist supporters expose themselves? Any candidate, who has blown her huge lead at the beginning of the campaign, and then has the audacity to stiff her vendors to put on a show is not fiscally enlightened enough to become commander-in-chief.

Its pretty pathetic.

Every time any Hillary supporter gets confronted on any thing, they have no response.

None.

Looks like the Hillary faithful are losing faith.

They got nothing.

They know their candidate is a broke, lying, manipulative loser.

Not a good place to be.

Poor blue collar sheep! Send Hillary money-now.

Send her a lot. She needs it to keep her 5 star hotel, Lear Jet, lavish lifestyle campaign for the 'little people' going.

Dog deep, sell a car, get a 2nd job ( oh wait there aren't any), sell your house-but get her the money. Her elite Hollywood and Corporate millionaires are tapped out.

So its up to you-lower class, uneduated blue collar people! 5 bucks, send her 5 bucks.

She isn't payingoff her lavish, mismanaged campaign-YOU are.

Look at it this way, she may send you a flag pin.

Is Hillary going to run country finances the same way as she managed her campaign money???

How much debt did BILL RICHARDSON have at the end of his camp?

Where did it all go?

It all disappeared after his endorsement of Obama.....­does that bother any Hufftards?

You are delusional.

Hillary can't manage a few million in a campaign how will she manage trillions?

She won't.

Hill and Bill run a lavish, mismanaged, hedonistic and elite lifestyle and they want YOU to pay for it.

So, get over there to Hill.com and hand over somemore cash to your failed candidate.

She has run a a huge bar bill and she isn't picking up the tab-YOU are.

She has 5 star hotel suites to pay for, limos, meanl, jets, wardrobews, and the cronies. The cronies that have have advised her failed and crappy campaign-don't come cheap.

BTW...she lied again about how much she owes.

Aren't all of her lies getting to you? You getting some buyers remorse?

She is going to pull an Edwards...­tell YOU and theother sheep that she is in it for the long haul, manipulate YOU into paying off her lavish campaign bill and then she will drop out.

So dig deep blue collar white guy-Hill needs you to pay off her debt.

Doesn't bother me....not when I look at the huge amount that Hillary takes from the lobbyists for the same healthcare companies that lied about and killed her previous healthcare plan.

She has tapped out all of her Hollywood and Corporate connections. She is now out panhandeling 5 bucks at a time for her blue collar sheep.

Pathetic. They are loaded at 109 million in the bank and they are going to manipulate the lower class, blue collar worker that barely can make it these days to send her money so that she can pay off her lavish, mismanaged and elite campaign bill.

5 star hotels and Lear jets don't come cheap.

oh god you idiot! nothing happens with this money that isn't all recorded and for public to see.

the problem with Hilary is she is past the point of caring if she gets caught lying... again!

you stupid freaking folks who say stuff like this... it just makes me want to puke.

i've had it with the the reasonably informed having to carry the stupid and easily confused in this country!

if there were an island that we could ship the stupid ones in this country off to, we could get busy with all the work that needs to be done! but... i can't imagine an island big enough!

I suppose you are trying to infer that Obama paid off Richardson's debts in exchange for his endorsement. Do you have any proof of this? A link to a reputable news agency reporting this will suffice.

Why is it OK for Mitt Romney to lend himself $42 MILLION, but $5 million from her is scandelous?

Becuase Mitt was honest about it and Hillary lied about it.

You see-pathological lying is bad.

Bush lies-all the time and that is bad.

Hillary lying all the time is equally bad.

Make sense now?

So, why is that all she is willing to loan to her campaign? Hill and Bill have collected $110 million since he left office (probably more since they haven't released their 2007 taxes). Romney believed in his campaign enough to loan it $42 million but all Hill and Bill are willing to spend is $5 million?

They seem pretty happy blowing through the contributions people like you make to her campaign, while she stiffs the vendors that extended her credit. But she's not willing to invest her own money in her campaign. Is that OK with you?

Another mismatch of words and actions by Hillary.

Those who just contributed $ 10 million(?) will have buyers remorse because she has already lost the race.

So now she has approx. $3.7 mil. BFD. But we won't really know how much her campaign made in April until May. She's keeping her fingers crossed that she actually did pull in $10 mil. Good luck with that...

Does her campaign get a negative credit rating if she doesn't pay back the $5 mil loan? Will she get to write-off the loan as a "bad debt" on her personal income taxes? Just wondering.­..
