The secretary of state's long-shuttered presidential campaign is still trying to pay off a steep debt, and has launched a new fundraising pitch urging donors to give money and compete for the chance to win one of three "exclusive prizes." One of those is a day with Bill Clinton.
Hillary Clinton is so eager to pay off her campaign debt, she's resorted to selling her husband -- for a day, anyway.
The most exclusive prize? A day of "adventure" in the Big Apple with former President Bill Clinton.
The other prizes are nothing to sneeze at either. One lucky winner and a guest with attend the "American Idol" season finale. The other gets a flight to Washington, D.C., for a weekend in the nation's capital, complete with a lunch with Democratic strategists and Clinton loyalists James Carville and Paul Begala. The secretary of state's long-gone presidential campaign still is trying to pay off a steep debt and has launched a new fundraising pitch urging donors to give money and compete for the chance to win one of three "exclusive prizes."

Keep it classy Hillary, keep it classy.
I did find it interesting that donating the highest amount does not win the prize, It gets you in a raffle to win the prize, just the same as donating $5.00 does.

According to the rules, you can enter without donating by sending an entry through the mail. I know that would be frustrating to them if they got too many entries this way.

Talking about money-grubber Hillary Clinton trailer-trashing the historically-respected office of U.S. Secretary of State, next thing you know we'll have a U.S. Secretary of the Treasury who's a tax evader.
Oh, wait a minute.......
