And we’re 2 years and 2 weeks out? WTF?
The super-PAC is building a list of supporters that is already hovering around 3 million.
Hillary Clinton’s friendly super-PAC is spending roughly $23,000 a day – nearly as much as it’s bringing in – as it builds a database of supporters and donors for a possible 2016 Democratic presidential bid.
Viewed another way: Getting Ready for Hillary costs her supporters about $2 million per quarter, covering expenses for everything from political consultants to voter databases to Des Moines hotel rooms, according to disclosure reports released October 15.
“Rather than building up a large bankroll, we have sought to invest in engaging our supporters and building our list for the day that Hillary’s decision comes,” said Seth Bringman, the super-PAC’s spokesman.
It costs money to raise money, and the group’s biggest expenses include printing, postage and online advertising. Payroll and travel costs also continue to grow. Bringman said the super-PAC has about 35 full-time employees. “Given that her decision is looming, I wouldn’t anticipate that we will staff up much more,” he said.
Based in a Virginia suburb outside Washington, Ready for Hillary raised $2 million and spent about $2.1 million during the quarter that ended September 30.

By comparison, Senator Rand Paul’s Rand PAC spent a fraction of that, about $598,000 while raising $480,363. Like the Clinton group, the Republican is using his PAC to stockpile supporters and favors for a potential White House bid.
Ready for Hillary’s fundraising prowess has helped create what amounts to the most robust campaign infrastructure of any prospective 2016 candidate, whether Democrat or Republican. The group says it has connected with more than 3 million Clinton supporters, persuaded 900,000 people to sign a pledge to help her win if she runs and distributed 600,000 bumper stickers. Contributions have arrived from more than 100,000 people in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and every U.S. territory.
Let the extortion and promises begin. This is going to get expensive for the commie, limousine libs. LOL! They can kiss large sums of their money goodbye. Slick Willie’s wife will not be denied. Good luck commies. You’re looking at a miserable two years ahead. Heh heh heh.
And I thought it was for makeup and hair .....
Because he's interesting, and usually at or near the top in national polls. A 1,000 times better than their usual suggesting that it's going to be another establishment type, such as Romney or Jeb Bush.
Mary Mahoney was a lesbian and WH intern --knew Monica personally.
She left the WH and got a job managing a Georgetown Starbucks until "very bad robbers" herded her and 3 other employees into the walk-in refrigerator and shot them all in the head, NO CASH TAKEN.
Moooost unfortunate.
I wonder what the motive was?
Ah, there it is. Got a blimp rented yet?
"He said he is gonna take up the slack !! Whatever I need !!"
