A person who sees how Sanders is able to raise money

would benefit from those donors had cards been played correctly. Yet another miscalculation, instead sought GOP mega donors. She couldn't fathom using money from the unwashed. That's our Goldwater Girl.

republican donors courted count. Just not most individual donors. Oh well she's on our side, right? I mean she courted the gop donors because she is with us, correct?

To paraphrase Donald Rumsfeld : "You go to war with the quotes you have".

Oops, oasis "there you go again". (Reagan debate quote)

I can't believe I just quoted three of DU's most hated public figures on one thread.

It's an "Axis of Evil" trifecta.

Oh oh, better make that four.

I'm not running for anything. Your OP was about fundraising. And now you're talking about votes? Clinton has more votes by far than Sanders, so if either candidate is wanting the other's votes it's not Clinton.

yes it was about fundraising and how one loves her some corporate dough, sorry. I did get off track, but I read a lot of stupid shit through the day, usually from the conservative wing of the democratic party (Hillary supporters)
