Hillary Running Out of Cash, Friends

Two interesting articles in tomorrow's NY Times:

Facing Obama Fund-Raising Juggernaut, Clinton Seeks New Sources of Cash
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/20/us/politics/20donor.html
"her big-dollar fund-raising apparatus that was once the envy of the political world is encountering obstacles as many of those in its regular networks of donors have reached the maximum on their personal contributions or grown tired of the relentless press for donations."


For Clintons, a Time to Find Truest Friends
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/20/us/politics/20loyalty.html

“It was just heartbreaking,” said Mrs. Larson, a Democratic National Committee member from Minnesota and more to the point, a superdelegate who had initially pledged herself to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. This was last Saturday, after the former first daughter learned that Mrs. Larson would be shifting her allegiance to Senator Barack Obama.


“She is a delightful young woman who loves her mother very much,” Mrs. Larson said. “She was really pushing me. She kept asking me why I was doing this. She just kept asking, ‘Why? Why?’ ”

From the last line of the first linked article:

William Titelman, a former Pennsylvania lobbyist and longtime Clinton fund-raiser who gave enough to spend a night in the Lincoln Bedroom


Tell me again why we want to revisit that kind of a White House. . .

I posted an apology for snarking on your Obama music comments! My bad-- wish I could have been at the rally!
