Clintons report $109.2M for 7 years
By JIM KUHNHENN, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and former President Clinton reported $20.4 million in income for 2007 and more than $109 million since 2000 as they gave the public the most detailed look at their finances in eight yearsMaybe she can pay the Boys and Girls Club now???
...According to a summary of the seven years provided by the campaign, the former president's speech income since he left the White House totals $51.85 million and his income from his two books — "My Life " and "Giving" — totals $29.6 million.
Hillary Clinton had $10.5 million in book income over the period from her book "Living History." She donated earnings from her other book, "It Takes a Village," to charity.
Clinton's tax returns show that of the remaining presidential candidates, she is the one most able to access large amounts of personal money. She lent her campaign $5 million in late February and could contribute more if she finds herself falling far behind Obama's proficient fundraising.
...In 2006, Obama reported income of nearly $1 million, with nearly half of it coming from the publication of his second book, "The Audacity of Hope." Last week, the campaign disclosed that Obama and his wife, Michelle, gave $240,000 to charity last year.

Prior to leaving the White House, the Clintons had never owned a home and were of modest means. If Obama were to be elected, he'd be starting service with more money in the bank than Bill had in the beginning and because Obama is at least as gifted an orator, if not better, then I'm sure he'll also rake in the dough, once he's done.

Hey Jim, you found all that from their tax returns, no wonder you couldn't wait for the issue.
Did you find anything in BHO's, or did you even look?
