Hillary Clinton's Campaign Lied About Funds Numbers
« on: March 21, 2008, 02:19:26 PM »
Is anyone really surprised?

Obama's got this thing.

Clinton?s true fundraising take in February was far less, almost by half.

The Los Angeles Times reports, after scouring Federal Elections Commission (FEC) reports that Clinton?s, uh, creative math, included ?$10 million from her Senate campaign account and a $5-million personal loan.?

The Associated Press digs deeper into the numbers (the February filing reports came in yesterday) and notes that most of the $19 million that Clinton did raise in February was either offset by unpaid bills or was ?general election? money (what big donors, lobbyists and PACs that have already given the maximum $2,300 to the primary campaign then give to a fund that can only be used if the candidate becomes the nominee):
