Hillary Shows Her Political Age.

Nothing showcases the clear lunacy of a legacy campaign more than the email Hillary Clinton sent out on Thursday night to her supporters.

I often write about what I see as the collision of the two power cores in politics, the aging DC legacy establishment and the new real world of politics that knows that access to information is changing the landscape forever. See here, here and here.

I predicted that we would see some might spin out of Iowa,but the clarity of the results slowed it down a touch, but no one showcases the clear lunacy of a legacy campaign than the email that Hillary Clinton sent out on Thursday night to her supporters.

Did she thank them for their help in Iowa? Nope.

Did she thank the staff many working for pennies? Nope.

Did she take any responsibility for her poor showing? Or promise to learn and get better?

Nope.

What she did was ask for money.

And as anyone who can read knows, she raised over $100,000,000 last year but hey, her third place finish and ability to continue in the race?

But today, I'm turning to you to help fund crucial activities in New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina and beyond.

Make a contribution today to help me win.

We're not just working to prevail over other candidates in a hard-fought contest for the Democratic nomination. This is about more than that. It's about our unyielding determination to reclaim our country from an administration that has failed us, betrayed our trust, and undermined our values.

That's why these next few days matter so much. I'm doing everything I can to drive our campaign to victory and I know you will do the same.

With your help, we can win. Make a contribution now.

Hillary Clinton has spent over $40 million to date in this race - with a bronze medal to show for it. The issue isn't money, the issue is a poorly-run campaign driven by polling and faded vision.

The issue is that she, and her senior advisors, don't realize that the Internet killed the triangulation star.

The issue is it's 2008, not 1992.

The issue is we know she voted for the war and didn't read the classified intelligence before she voted.

The issue is clearly not money. (besides she has over $50,000,000 cash on hand.)

She, and her staff should be ashamed and embarrassed.

And anyone undecided in New Hampshire should read that email and come to a single conclusion.

"wow, she just doesn't get it."
