BOSTON (AP) — She's yet to say whether she'll run, but a group working to support Hillary Rodham Clinton's prospective presidential bid raised more than $1 million in June alone.

The Ready for Hillary super PAC has accepted donations exceeding $1.25 million since beginning to raise money in earnest this spring, an official with the group confirmed Tuesday. The figure includes more than $1 million last month as the operation begins to ramp up.

Hillary Clinton and her driver were cruising along on a country road one evening when an ancient cow loomed in front of the car.

The driver tried to avoid it but couldn't. The aged bovine was struck and killed. Hillary told her driver to trek up to the farmhouse to explain to the owners what had happened, while she stayed in the car, wanting to avoid trouble at all costs! About an hour later, her driver staggered back to the car, with his clothes in complete disarray. He was holding a half-empty bottle of very expensive wine in one hand, a rare huge Cuban cigar in the other, and was smiling happily, smeared in lipstick!

"What the hell happened to you?" demanded Hillary.

"Well," the driver replied, "The farmer gave me the cigar, his wife gave me the wine and his beautiful two daughters made wild, passionate love to me."

"My God, what did you tell them?" Hillary asked?

The driver replied, "I just stepped inside the door and said to them, 'I'm Hillary Clinton's driver and I've just killed the old cow.' The rest happened so fast I couldn't stop it."

Dunce-o-crats just keep on insisting on running people who are the least qualified don’t they. Maybe besides destruction, they can name for me one thing she has accomplished as Senator, Clintoon co-President or S of S. Yeah, speaking of which - what an outstanding success she was as Secretary of state. An eggplant could have done a better job. Seriously, an eggplant does nothing as well and it won’t lie.

Hahaha!

LOL.
I love that joke!
Thanks very much for liking it, too.

I could own all the airsickness bags in the world and I still wouldn't be "ready for Hillary."

Disgusting witch.

LOL. Reminds of this joke but with Nancy Pelosi:

This guy dies and goes to hell and he finds himself sitting in a giant arena with Satan giving a sermon in the center. The usher tells him “We sit everyone on how evil they were in life. The least evil sit way in the back while the most evil sit in the front seats so as to be nearer to Satan. Since you were one of the least evil you sit way in the back.”

So the guy goes, OK fine. Who are the group of people sitting in front of me? And the usher says “oh those are the people who helped Stalin get to power. In front of them are the ones who helped Hitler and in front of them are the ones who helped Mao.” So the guy goes “There is still a row in front of them, at the very front, who are they? And the usher says “Oh those are all the people who kept reelecting Nancy Pelosi.”

Democratic names now involved include former Clinton White House Deputy Chief of Staff Harold Ickes, Democratic Party operative James Carville, Sen. Claire McCaskill D-Mo., and former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm.

Those names appear to have helped get the attention of the party’s grassroots, in addition to the Democratic donor base. According to The New York Times, which got an advance peek at the Federal Election Commission filings the PAC is finalizing this week, the list of donors includes more than a dozen of President Obama’s 2012 “bundlers,” or biggest fundraisers, plus deep-pocketed Democratic financiers who together financed more than $100 million in 2012 super PAC spending.

[kcvl]

According to an official with the PAC who has reviewed the filing, among the Obama bundlers and large donors who have given to readyforhillary.com are:

• Robert Roche, co-founder and Chairman of the Board of Acorn International Inc, ($25,000);

• Andrew Tobias, writer and long-time treasurer of the Democratic National Committee ($5,000);

• Elizabeth Bagley, former ambassador and state department official. ($5,000);

• Carol Pensky, President Obama’s Commission on Presidential Scholars and founder of DNC’s Women’s Leadership Forum ($5,000);

• Daniel Berger, Boyer & Montague Pc in Philadelphia, PA. ($25,000)

• Patricia Duff, long-time Democratic activist ($5000);

• Cynthia Shapira , wife of Pittsburgh supermarket magnate, David, and activist ($25,000);

• Barbara Stiefel, donor from Coral Gables who gave $1.25 million to Obama’s Priorities USA Action ( $25,000);

• James Horme, Equidex, INC in San Francisco ($25,000);

• Winthrop McCormack of Portland, OR. ($25,000);

In May, the group announced its National Finance Council, with founding members Susie Tompkins Buell of California, a clothing entrepreneur and close friend of Clinton’s, and Texas megadonors Steve and Amber Mostyn, who gave $25,000 to the PAC in recent weeks. The Mostyns gave $3 million to the Obama-supported PrioritiesUSA.

What a great deal! Raise a million bucks, and not have to spend a penny on campaign propaganda- the media will make movies and miniseries aplenty for free.... geez.....

[GeronL]

I think maybe we should start taxing these political orgs

[GenXteacher]

I think they ought to have public lists of who gave the money, and be forced to wear firesuits like NASCAR with all their ‘sponsors’ on them. Then we would find out who finances the candidates..... The one that spends the most money has to wear a chicken suit.
