Any business owner who provides a product or service on credit to any political campaign with the expectation of being actually being paid is truly stupid.

Serves them all right.

If you do business with a criminal enterprise you can expect to get stiffed.

Which happens over and over again with the clintons...

Doesn’t giving away their services for free come under the heading of a “campaign contribution”? And isn’t there a law as to how large it can be? Maybe these ‘innocents’ can and should be prosecuted for campaign law violations. Oh, I forgot,McCain took the money out of politics. Fugeddaboudit.

The amazing thing to me is how many naive, bleeding heart “liberals” who always profess to be for “the little people” never, NEVER admit that the Clinton's are less than perfect. They hold them up to be saints.

No matter what the Clinton's do, they always get a pass from the MSM and their “liberal” sycophantic believers and fans.

The Clinton's are pure Teflon.

Speaking of which...

When told the [HillayCare] plan could bankrupt small businesses, Mrs. Clinton sighed, "I can't be responsible for every undercapitalized small business in America."

Someone should sue.

I knew a small businessman who was stiffed about $50K by Jesse Jackson’s campaign in the 1980s. They told him tough sh*t and to sue if he didn’t like it, the attutude being he should have been proud to have been part of it.

Well, no.

See the “return the illegally donated money” scam can be easily circumvented.

The campaign writes a (big) check to the Chinese businessman/military/union office/criminal/drug dealer/etc.

The check is widely reported. Once.

The Chinese businessman/military/union office/criminal/drug dealer/etc then simply “forgets” to ever cash the check.

Money stays in the Clinton’s pocket.

Like most liberals, she expects SOMEONE ELSE to pay.

Hillary Rodham Clinton’s cash-strapped presidential campaign has been putting off paying hundreds of bills for months — freeing up cash for critical media buys, but also earning the campaign a reputation as something of a deadbeat in some small business circles.

Cash strapped? I thought she was raising 35 million a month.

Preferably, a taxpayer.

Just scanning the list, these two jump out:

Aetna Healthcare $228,841.30
CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield $62,744.52


So, the folks who want to manage healthcare for the entire country can't even pay the insurance bills for their campaign? OK.
Bump. Worthy of discussion on Monday.
