Bernie Sanders’ campaign had less than $6 million at the start of May, a critical cash shortage as he makes an admittedly tough final play to wrest the Democratic presidential nomination from Hillary Clinton.
Sanders’ rival had five times as much money, according to new Federal Election Commission filings, beginning the month with $30 million in the bank.
The two were on roughly equal fundraising footing last month, with Clinton and Sanders each raising more than $25 million. But the Vermont senator spent almost $39 million to Clinton’s $24 million, the reports showed. …

I want my 2 cents back..!
Quick! Moneybomb, lol!!
Can’t he just ask people for some free stuff?
I don’t see why it matters with a handful of primaries left and the fact that riots don’t cost the rioters anything.
Some big money Pubs should donate to Bernie to keep him in the race. He’s giving Hillary fits, inducing alienation against Hillary amongst many Democrats, and is distracting her from a full campaign against Trump.
Right now, Bernie is one of the most effect weapons we have against Hillary. We should keep that weapon fueled up as long as it’s harming her.
Trump can pay it off for his support. U don’t think his ‘rabid’ followers will do you?
His wife did such a good job running her college, she must have been put in charge of the money.
It appears that the “snowflakes” aren’t willing to put their money where there big mouth is.
I think having Trump supporters donate a bit for Sanders is a good idea. But a better idea would be for his supporters to put their money where their mouths are.
Hmmm ... something here ... Thatcheriish
... other peoples moneyish.
Socialists only know how to take money, not raise it. They’re in real trouble now.
Bernie doesn’t have a real chance of overtaking Hillary! anyway. So it really is an exercise in futility.
On the Dem side, there are 8 more primaries/conventions left.
I don’t think he’ll be spending on DC, PR or the USVI.
The RATS are already done in WA.
All that’s left are the June 7 primaries in CA, MT, ND, NJ, NM and SD. Four of those states are relatively inexpensive to advertise in (MT, ND, NM, SD). That leaves CA and NJ, which will be expensive. Not sure if much more Bern! needs to be felt anyway at this point in time.
I imagine Soros will step up to Burnie’s plate if Cancles accelerates further towards the septic ...
And, in a related story, Sanders’ wife’s college has probably less than 6 million dollars left in it’s account.
Maybe Maduro and the Castro Brothers can help Comrade Boiny ?
So once again, a socialist is running out of other people’s money.
yeah, that's the ticket.
Bern the money...I like the smell of Bernt money in the morning.
All his supporters want somebody else to contribute to his campaign.
