Former first lady Hillary Clinton has until the convention in August to get her money back, her goddamn money for Christ’s sake, but how will she do that? The same way she does everything: by lying. Today she sent an e-mail to supporters, asking, “I hope you’ll take a moment to view our online album with some favorite photos from the campaign.” There are like seven mostly terrible photos, and then, of course, the big red CONTRIBUTE button. So basically she asks you to look at photos of her failed, finished campaign, and then to… give her money for it! Done and done. Also, Hilz ends her e-mail with, “I’ll be in touch soon.” Hooray!

Hillary Clinton’s campaign has acknowledged that it is $20 million in debt. Who cares? That’s about a fifth of the money she and Bill have made in the last seven years, and Barack will help ease some of it when she quits. She can put a few more weeks on her AmEx if she wants to, and she might as well at this point: Let her run out the rest of the primaries, everyone will decide, and the only thing pushing her out will be her old nemesis, Math, finally set-in-stone. And then she’ll sue and take it to the convention where Al Gore will become president, again. [Washington Post]
