A freeper sent the following:

Heard a rumor last night:

Shrillary had a scheduled Fundraiser-PRIVATE, like she always does--in Hillsboro, a rich area of San Francisco on the calendar for last week. Without any notice, she cancelled this fund raiser.

Like I say-a rumor.

Because of Sanders attacking her over her rich donors? She couldn't miss a minute in Iowa? Don't know. But media in San Fran is silent on this. It most likely would have been held at a private home, with Silicon Valley Billionaires.

Thanks, anonymous.

(UPDATE: The Hillary Clinton campaign has postponed a New York City fundraiser scheduled for Thursday until Feb. 16, according to Marisa Faltelson, New York finance co-director at Hillary for America. This story, previously headlined “Hillary Clinton Doing Back-to-Back Finance Industry Fundraisers Just Before Iowa,” has been updated to reflect the postponement.)

Despite being dogged with questions about her ties to Wall Street, Hillary Clinton will take a detour from the campaign trail in Iowa to do a finance industry fundraiser on Wednesday.

Clinton will appear in Philadelphia at a “gala” fundraiser hosted by executives at Franklin Square Capital Partners, a $17 billion investment fund. Rocker Bon Jovi will reportedly play an acoustic set for “friends” who pledge $1,000 and hosts who bundle up to $27,000. (Giancarlo Stefanoni, a Clinton campaign staffer, confirmed that as of Tuesday afternoon, the event is still on.)

The Philadelphia Inquirer notes that “Franklin Square employs Ivy League-educated money managers and salespeople with experience at big Wall Street firms - plus four personal trainers and a dietitian to keep staff happy and productive amid the gym, yoga and nap rooms, Sol LeWitt art installations, and fancy cafeteria.”

Clinton was then scheduled to head to New York City on Thursday, where she was to speak at a lunchtime “Conversations With Hillary” fundraiser, now set for next month. This one is co-hosted by Matt Mallow, a senior managing director and general counsel at BlackRock, the world's largest asset management firm. As we've reported before, having a conversation with Hillary is not cheap.

BlackRock’s ties to Clinton go particularly deep: Cheryl Mills, one of Clinton's closest advisers at the State Department, sits on BlackRock’s board, and perhaps not surprisingly, Clinton's plans for the industry align with the company's financial strategy.

The story is true and the reason is not advertised.

The fundraiser is in a liberal lawyers place. The problem is that the Hitlery campaign did not *vet* him in advance.

The lawyer represent the Steinle family case of their daughter*s murder by the 5-time deported illegal in the sanctuary city of San Francisco.

They dumped him faster than saying hello!

I stated on FR last year that Hillary was in poor health and I predicted she would not be able to run for the Democrat candidacy. To be President in January 2017 would require more energy than she could muster.

Hillary looks terrible in that photo. No amount of makeup or stylish hair curls can hide her exhaustion.

I do not think she can do it.
