For all her praise of “white, hard-working Americans,” Clinton “added another $9.5 million in unpaid bills to vendors this past month alone.” Incredible.
One has to take this madness at face value. In my mind, it’s an early indication that Clinton is running for 2012. In racking up such huge debts, she is either a) willing to sacrifice her own fortune to become President now or four years hence*; or b) willing to seriously draw down Obama’s coffers, which may help bail her out in the end. Who else will pay off her debts? A third party? In any case, Obama suffers.
Will she campaign hard for Obama this summer? We’ll know for sure post-concession, after Hillary delivers the usual platitudes about uniting the party. If she disappears, I hope for her sake that Hell doesn’t exist.
