Yet another sign that Hillary Clinton is doing her dead-level best to take title to the Democratic National Convention.

In addition to the laundry list of concessions she has already wrung out of Barack Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton plan to use the convention to raise money to pay off more of her campaign debt from the primaries.

Hillary Clinton has announced she will award one lucky donor a trip to the convention – with her. And in case that's not incentive enough, Bill Clinton sent an e-mail to potential contributors promising a memorable week with his wife.


LOL...

Seriously though... this is unbelievable. Hillary using the convention to panhandle. It's not enough that they both have major speaking parts, that Hillary has gotten a show, er floor vote, and that they are getting major primetime airtime.... now they want to use the convention to pay off her campaign bills. Unreal.

When you are looking ahead to 2012 you want to be debt free... and you don't mind at all if you weaken the party's candidate in 2008. With any kind of luck he might lose and you wouldn't have an incumbent running for YOUR party in 2012.

Who cares about the country and what the next four years might bring. Its her destiny. That's what's important.

I would like to see an audit of the Clinton campaign expenses. Period.
