Hillary Clinton is getting some bad press. At Political Wire this morning, a kind of deflation seems to be creeping into Clinton news.
First, there's Hillary and money. Great slugs of money would bestow her campaign a kind of legitimacy mere popularity doesn't give. Except for those of us who are more than worried about the money's sources and the promises it buys.
Said one top Democratic donor: “It’s going to be like nothing you’ve seen. The numbers will be astounding.” ...PoliticalWire
It's almost a relief to read that things aren't all that certain for Hil. A few moments later, Political Wire reports, a reporter at the New York Times reminds us that "Few modern political figures inspire the animus that Hillary Rodham Clinton generates, and the cottage industry that opposes her never really goes out of business."
Evidently, Clinton's 2010 rival isn't about to make it easy for her either.
“At issue is the fate of the political equivalent of gold dust — the enormous email list, comprised of many millions of supporters and donors, that the Obama team has compiled over the course of his two presidential campaigns. The Clinton camp would dearly love to get its hands on the list, but there is no promise as yet that the president’s aides will comply.” ...TheHill
