Hillary Clinton supporters: Donate $20.12 for 2012 challenge 1 hr 3 mins ago

Supporters of Hillary Clinton are encouraging fellow fans to donate $20.12 Friday to signify support for a primary challenge to President Barack Obama in 2012.

Clinton narrowly lost the Democratic nomination to Obama in 2008, and embittered supporters have plotted a comeback ever since.

Recently, several Democrats have murmured regret about the nomination of Obama over Clinton, who they believe would have been a more strident proponent of Democratic policies. (RELATED: Gravel names his price: $1 million to challenge Obama)

A Facebook page encouraging donations to Clinton directs supporters to the secretary of state’s former campaign website. The website states that donations will help pay off Clinton’s 2008 campaign debt.

The largest Facebook group encouraging a second Clinton candidacy — “Hillary Clinton for 2012!!!” — currently has over 1,400 members.

Heh, somebody got this idea from Sarah Palin supporters. Someone posted a couple of weeks ago that if Sarah gets in the race, we should immediately send $20.12 to her, as an initial donation, just to get that infusion of cash in the first 24 hours.

Might be worth donating to HC just to see BO get his knickers in a knot. (And possibly even be defeated in the primary)

Wouldn’t 6.66 be more appropriate?

My only problem with a primary challenge is that the challenger might win!

Hillary as a fresh opponent would be tougher to beat than 0bama.
OTOH, a clone of either of them without the name recognition or finances would just cause trouble for 0bama and drain resources, and be easily beatable in the unlikely event that they won.

Searching online, looks like the Clintons' net worth is over $100 Million. Campaign debt is $329,000 according to NPR article "Presidential Campaign Debt Can Linger For Decades".

But they can't dip into their own pockets for that? The have to con people out of it?

Greedy, ain't they?

Let her pay for her own campaign. Besides she is as bad as Obama. They both cheat, lie and steal and both work for the same people, Soros and Riady from Indonesia who Hillary secretly allowed into this country recently after he had been banned.

She’s a marxist, looks like a pig, and I wouldn’t give her 2.012 cents or spit in her axx if her guts were on fire.

Amusing, until one considers what she’d use that money for when she decides *not* to challenge Zero, but joins him as the VP on the ticket.

Donate $20.12 (or $2012.00 !) to conservative Republican campaigns.

Thanks Sub-Driver.
