Democratic presidential contender Hillary Rodham Clinton pulled in $28 million for her 2016 bid in the third fundraising quarter of the year, just a few million more than insurgent candidate Bernie Sanders and a sharp drop from her record-setting $47.5 million haul in the spring.

While Sanders's fundraising picked up over the summer, helping him collect more than $25.5 million over the last three months, the pace of donations to Clinton's campaign dropped despite a packed fundraising schedule and intense online push for dollars.

Campaign officials maintained that they were pleased with summer haul, which gives her a total of $75 million raised so far.

How much stupid does it take to give that witch any money?

Money laundering.

When she drops out....after a fainting spell....she gets to keep all the money and donate it to her favorite charity.

Hmmmm....Now what charity could that be??

This appears to be a fake run where the party said....run and take the money and get lost...

I can't see where she's spent a ton of money. She's getting her severance pay....just like a CEO. Ain't that special.

Kind of a long way from that $2 Billion she said she was going to raise. (right before saying we need to get money out of politics).

I guess Bill finally kicked in a campaign donation from the family trust .
