Huffington Post: Clinton Allies May Dump Millions Into Anti-Obama Groups
According to The Huffington Post, the Clinton campaign is so strapped for cash that they’re considering giving up on the Nevada caucuses and South Carolina primary, in order to save up for the 19-state mega primary on Feb. 5.
Independent groups supporting Clinton meanwhile, are in talks to start up an anti-Obama “527″ that would take unlimited contributions from a few of Clinton’s super-rich backers and from a handful of unions to finance television ads and direct mail designed to tarnish the Illinois Senator’s image.
The Clinton campaign has raised over $100 million dollars to date, but only has $15-$20 million left! Clearly you can call the Clinton campaign many things, but “frugal” is certainly not one of them.
Many of Clinton’s wealthiest donors are reluctant to give more money in the face of such humiliating defeats in Iowa and most likely New Hampshire. Some are even considering pulling their support for Clinton and going with Obama, which would be devastating on a number of levels to Hillary’s campaign.

Looks like Obama has Hillary up against the ropes. Good, I don’t think her crying incident is going to help her campaign fund raiser make more money for her campaign.
