Fleeing Hillary: Top Dem money man departs because Clinton hasn’t answered ethics questions
Washington Times ^ | 4-26-15 | By S.A. Miller

A top Democratic moneyman recruited by Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign has put fundraising activities on hold, saying he can’t do it with a clear conscience because the former secretary of state has too many unanswered questions swirling around her.

New York businessman Jon Cooper, who Team Clinton enlisted for its elite corps of early fundraisers known as “HillStarters,” said that he decided not to tap his donor network for Mrs. Clinton because she hasn’t provided enough answers about foreign donations to the Clinton Foundation while she ran the State Department, her exclusive use of private email for official business as America’s top diplomat and her commitment to liberal priorities.

“I’m officially on the fence,” said Mr. Cooper, a bundler for President Obama’s campaigns who is active in Democratic politics in New York, which Mrs. Clinton represented in the U.S. Senate and where she has set up her campaign headquarters.

Hillary never “ran” the state department. Muslims run the state department. Obama didn’t select Hillary to be SOS. He selected Huma.

The rats are fleeing the sinking ship. Let’s hope he’s the first of many.

Annoying Hillary. (To the extent that’s not redundant.) Awesome.

Now somebody needs to do one for Bill. And Chels. And each of the team.

He was a character played by Andy Griffith in ‘A Face in the Crowd’ from 1957. In a nutshell, he’s a slick talking Arkansas drifter who rises to national fame and power, only to lose it all when the mask slips off.

When Hillary’s mask falls off, she will not know it, even when it is pointed out to her.

Watch the trailer on Amazon. It’s worth it for the brief shot of Lee Remick twirling in her majorette uniform. That is 50’s cuteness at its best!

No this a game. Eventually they’ll say she is vetted, has apologized and is looking ahead and people will get on board.

This is BS, liberals have no conscience.

Not only do liberals have no conscience, if this man did have a conscience he would have abandoned Hill long ago. Long, long ago.

The other thing big donors might see is how far they are in back of the line and will they even get access to present their case.

This is satire, yes?

It’s too hard to believe a Dem would suddenly care about ethics.

More likely he just doesn't want to be around if somebody turns on the lights and gets out the microscope.

What the Republicans need to do is hammer home this fact: Clintons = Democrats...Democrats = Clintons

And that she's got the Muslim vote.

Exactly—might he be a part of the stealth Warren campaign? At least Obama/Jarrett directed?

I see a Lonesome Rhodes type ending to her career.

A great movie starring Andy Griffith....and a good analogy - this Lonesome Rhodes quote could have just as easily come from Hillary:

: "Those morons out there? Shucks, I could take chicken fertilizer and sell it to them as caviar. I could make them eat dog food and think it was steak. Sure, I got 'em like this... You know what the public's like? A cage of Guinea Pigs. Good Night you stupid idiots. Good Night, you miserable slobs. They're a lot of trained seals. I toss them a dead fish and they'll flap their flippers.
